Post your best current shots

[cls]

Welcome to the forum, nice shots and good comments. I'm guessing that's not Australia.

True, that&rsquo;s not Australia. The photos are from the east coast of Sweden where the Baltic Sea has been more or less completely covered by ice this winter. I guess north European geography is not obvious for someone living on the other side of the globe, so I include a link to a Wikipedia map for information. (Sweden is the dark green area and the Baltic Sea is the water east of Sweden.)

took this picture this afternoon, I took total about 500 shots, and I have posted 2 more in "post your best bird shots thread" which are more close up pictures


7D, 500mm 4.0. all I can tell you is that my hands were shaking and my heart were beating so fast when I was taking those pictures. it was pretty bloody, I had the chance to save that poor bird, but I know it's just the way it should be.

This weekend I spent a few hours waiting for the "super moon" to rise from the sea, and fortunately the weather was clear so I got what I came for. Nature can be quite impressive, but it's not easy to capture on film (or CMOS). However I thought I'd share a few of my attempts.

CLS, Lucky you to be on the east coast or facing over an eastern body of water when that moon was coming up and you did a nice job capturing the moon and the water in the first shot along with some interesting foreground---very nice depth of field. If I had to critique it, my only comment would be to try and get a little closer to the ground on shots like this. Other than that, very nice work.


Thanks for sharing and welcome to TDP,


Bob

Ade, some great pictures. I especially like the first one at the top of the page and the first in the above post.


Andy,I appreciatethe comment and I am glad you liked it. This morning convinced myself the white balance wasa little off, so I just updatedthe postwith a slightly warmer version. Great TS shots, BTW (especially #1, with the flowers along the road).


I had forgotten about this waterfall...also in the White Mountains from Sunday:
