Who says that Christmas photographs have to be all colorful and bright? Here is my version of a moody Christmas tree. Taken on the walls of the Imperial Castle Nuremberg with my Olympus PEN-F and the mZuiko 25mm F/1.8.
Image specs 1/60 sec @ f/1.8 and ISO 1600. Heavily desaturated (it is not a B&W conversion) in Lightroom Classic. I also introduced some grain and burned (brightened) the heavy rain clouds around the tree.
I felt like being moody today.

I like the photo a lot, I think it would’ve been nice even wothout the tree 🙂 did you dodge or burn those clouds? Im asking as usually clouds are not that bright at night and need burning
Thanks, Lukas, appreciate your comment. Yes, I did some burning to bring out the clouds! Marcus

Very dramatic shot, Marcus. That has to be pretty interesting to see the tree up on the walls. Cheers. Allan
