Searching for perfect light last Sunday I was up at 5am to get myself ready for walk in the National forest with some other college course mates…It was lovely morning, but I had to admit a bit cold. Took lots of pictures showing once again magic of Golden hour…so I wanted to share some with you as well…
Shutter Speed: 3sec Aperture: F29 ISO: 100
~before sunrise~
~before sunrise~
Probably the best of all lot as it is perfectly shows that day’s morning tranquillity...taken by Tamron SP 10-24mm F 3.5-4.5 Di II for Nikon AF-S, what is the latest addition to my lens collection what was worth to have, as images taken by this lens brings out all beauty of the sky what person just cant see...Image by it self was a bit improved on photo shop as by Edit tool using a Fill option I took away all branches and leafs sticking pout of the corners as I thought it will gives that photograph more personality.
Shutter Speed: 1/5sec Aperture: F22 ISO: 100
Shutter Speed: 1/6sec Aperture: F22 ISO: 100
~process of sunrise~
In the process you can see how different light is now…as sun is just started it way to a new day. Wanted to get a closer look I swapped my wide angle lens for a Tamron tele zoom ones.
Shutter Speed: 1/20sec Aperture: F22 ISO: 100
~after sunrise~
Look a lot darker and different from other ones as I decided going back to kit lens option and also using polariser filter, what this time rally done the job making all appear more sharper and with strong contrast.
All pictures were taken in manual mode using ISO 100 in order to get best possible out of it…hope you like it.
Hi
ReplyDeleteGreat work again and showing real drive to produce these images, can we discuss how we can possibly improve these if at all, use of filters, graduated and coloured we have talked about before.
Again compare to research please and be analytical about what you say.

Great capture of the early morning mist. Although you lose some of the mist with the polariser I really like the clarity that it has helped produce in the final image.
ReplyDeleteI have virtually always used landscape for images of the gravel pits. Your use of portrait changes that balance and really emphasises the sky and reflection - makes them feel bigger somehow.
Are the colours straight from camera? Have you tried playing with the colour balance and contrast? The delicate pastle colours of the first image are beautiful, but might be worth trying to process differently to provide that comparison even if you stay with the original.

I love the reflection that you have captured on you first picture - and how you have used the branches to frame you last photo - lovely composition
