Well, here's something I thought I would never be able to capture in a photograph...
Nice capture Watsisname ! I totally get what you mean, it is indeed an incredibly beautiful thing to observe, hard to describe and to capture.
I've experienced them during sail trips, often seen in the trail leaved by the boat as it move along and disrupt the little creatures, sometimes huge ball of them appeared with much stronger luminescence than the usual flux. I've tried to take pictures aswell but on a moving boat it was hopeless..
One time, a group of dolfins came close to the boat and start playing around it as they like to do, it was night time, and something so eerie happened, as the dolfins swim, the Noctiluca Scintillans is being disrupted and a trail of light appear on and behind the dolfins. I could clearly saw their shape and the path they had took for few short secs, and when they dived deep down, the trail followed. The sea was pitch black and they were moving around in 3d surrounded by this electrical blue sparkling color. They played for few minutes and leaved. it was one surreal and magic moment
I found a
video on youtube of a similar encounter.
even just touching the water would send huge electric blue shockwaves spreading across the surface.
Wow that must have been something! I'm really curious of how it would render filmed by a low light camera! there is a bunch of videos of it on YT, even surfers on blue lights but nothing like you described.
I think the exposure balance of the sky and ground matched very well in this shot.
Looks like a painting! Great contrasts ,superb shot
Also great eclipse photos as well as
DoctorOfSpace, the last one look so dramatic.
