Description
I took a series of these awesome shots when I was in South Carolina. Hilton Head was a magical place! I wish I could live there.Related content

Colors and lightning effects are perfect.. however the focus is a little bit off in my opinion.. Good job though!

Stunning bokeh work! You captured the magic of the scene at that moment very well. I visited Hilton Head when I was a child and have very fond memories of the place.

A Nikon D3000, huh? Good stuff, I have the D3100 and I can't take pictures this good

Thanks Craig! I'm glad you like it.
Gear matters, but not that much. Sure, a D3S and a macro lens would take this shot better (quality wise) but the composition, technique, and subject matter are all the same. Just find the interesting things in life. You can take this with any decent DSLR. Sure, a point-and-shoot compact camera can't do it, but an old D50 can.

I've learned the same thing in the past couple years I've gone semi-professional. I've had friends with better cameras than my D3100 (it's not hard

Thanks again bro! I use a D7100 now too. It's a solid camera if you want something top grade, but don't want to spend more a bigger sensor that you wouldn't really need.
Keep practicing. You'll rock it.

D7100 blows the D300 out of the water... that's what I would go for. It's just newer and better technology. You'll be impressed by the sharpness of that new CMOS filter. Having no AA filter helps with detail too.
The D300 is a cheaper alternative though, so I understand if it's a budget call.

For me, I wouldn't actually buy a D300/D300S new - my grandpa has one and it's kind of become my dream camera a little bit

I mainly got it for the improved sensor performance. Very good in low light, very true to color and dynamic range. I understand the nostalgic need you have for the D300s though. It's still a great camera!
You can create some magic with the D3100 too. It's all about the subject matter though... finding something beautiful for the viewfinder.

Gorgeous, the lens flare is beautiful and the lighting is really dramatic and eye-catching.
Lovely work, I wouldn't change a thing!

Thank you very much! The only thing I'd change is the sharpness. I focused on the top left instead of the center lol. Oh well. It was a lucky shot!
