29 August - Whitby for dawn

Although it was windy at least it was not raining. Long exposures require robust gear and I have a great carbon fibre tripod and am happy that it is rigid. I wedged it against a fence as well to decrease the chance of the wind blowing it over - this happened 2 years ago and broke my Canon 1DS3.

Across the harbour

I took a few shots today, all of which I am happy with. The exposures were upto 16 minutes, although this one was a mere 240 seconds (4 minutes). I converted it to black and white in Photoshop CS5 and tinted it in Lightroom.

I have put another shot from today on the main website.
