Short exposure II

Looking up

Another BW image, perhaps one that needs to be printed big so that the viewer can really appreciate the level of detail in the foliage. The raw-file has very little contrast, so I have increased it slightly and added a slight vignetting.

This is from the same fountain as the image in the previous post, "Long exposure". Here the the shutter speed is 1/2000 second, and the movement is frozen making the water look more like glass than water.
Long exposure
in Photography
This is a 30 second exposure made with a 10 stop ND filter. The 10 stop filter can be a bit challenging to work with when the light changes a lot in a short time. Here the sun was out just a few seconds and gone again. So I experimented to see what worked best, and after a series of shots I had a bit of luck and the sun was out for most of the exposure.

Near Arnarstapi, Iceland
in Photography
Over the past few weeks I have been taking look at the images from last years trip to Iceland, and I still find images that look alright with a little post processing. Here is one example from the first half of the workshop. Hope you like it.

Hraunfossar, Iceland
in Photography
This image is shot at Hraunfossar, and is one of the images from last years POADS workshop in Iceland. The waterfall is kind of puzzling. The water just seems to emerge from the riverbank, which is lined with basalt rock; the water flows from a waterfall a bit further up the river and along the basalt rock through the looser material which covers the basalt and pours out of the riverbank here.

"Stories we tell"
in Photography
Sometimes a word can say more than a pile of images. If I say "chair", I am sure a lot of images flash before your inner eye; your mind starts to wander. Sometimes an image can do the same, make you ponder the story behind it, what will happen next. To me this is such an image. Hope you enjoy it.
Pilgrim's Way Lindisfarne
in Photography
This is an image from Lindisfarne, or Holy Island, which is a tidal island; the island is cut of from the mainland at high tide. The view is towards the mainland, and the posts you see on the right mark the Pilgrim's Way leading from the mainland running across the sands, exposed by low tide, over to the island. The posts are about 4 meters tall, and the difference between high and low tide may exceed 4 meters.
Wind farm
in Photography
This is a shot from Northumberland. Driving along a small country road we came across a wind farm, with wind turbines were popping up on both sides of the road. I am not sure if the small format on this web page does the image justice, I think this needs to be turned into a big print.
