....grmbl.... I can not get my head around that damn DAM stuff today... <grins> 2 computers, 1 Raid, 3 external HD's ~2TB storage with programs, music, photos, scratchdisks, and all pretty much in a state of "creative chaos". I need to get that sorted before anything else.
Anyhow, while still digging through old stuff, I came across something that I thought describes best the unique quality of Light available here in Ireland. It was last November and I was trying to shoot rocks on the beach while the weather changed.... with in 20 minutes the both pictures were taken.... luckily I had my Filters with me and so I went up the rocks and used a ND 3.0 on the second picture with 30 seconds exposure which caused the slow incoming tide to blur to a "fog".
Isn't it a spectecular change in just ~20 minutes? It was a very mild november day, not a cloud in the sky when I shot the rocks, needless to say, I got soaked to the bone before I went home. <grins>
P.S. Due to the lack of better equipment such as T/S Lense etc. I tried a little trick on the second picture. I selected a triangle from where the light hits the water going to the rocks in the foreground. I only sharpened this part of the picture.
