Lake Bled Island Church and Castle at dusk.
Ordinarily during the blue hour, the best white balance is daylight. However, there are certain conditions in which using the fluorescent white balance setting works brilliantly. This is one of them. Typically it works best when a bright moon is up. In this case the moon was high and at 77% waxing. Despite the heavy low cloud and mist, the moonlight still penetrates some, and couple with the artificial light of the church and castle reflecting off the mist, produces some amazing results!
