The lake in blue and black.

What usually happened to the ball despite Mr. Raine's careful illustrations of how to spike. :-)

"Dad, please... please! I'm sure it would work.

Your blue and black lake picture is so pretty! Did you use any special techniques to achieve the coloring?

When I took the picture, I used the tungsten setting which gives everything a blue tint. Also, I lowered the exposure to darken the photo. Later editing did the rest. Have you had enough lessons from your brothers that you know what I'm talking about? :-)
