Just learning my Sony Alpha 58 DSLR, while departing Venice on an eastern Mediterranean Sea cruise. Not knowing better, used full auto to take this shot, which did well replicating the brilliant topaz blue lighting of the yacht's namesake jewel, "Topaz."

Found the in camera HDR process could produce interesting low light results.
