Moonlit Night Over Curacao Island

Nov 27, 2010 | Nighttime HDR

Here’s an HDR photo from Curacao taken in front of Lodge Kura Hulanda. This image was photographed right after the nighttime photo seen here. I saw this shot while walking towards my room. This little bus looked very interesting, I’ve never seen anything like it. But what made it really cool were the clouds behind the bus being illuminated by the moonlight. I should have taken 9 exposures for this image, but I was exhausted from the flight over and didn’t even think about it at the time :-(
