I took this on Thursday, along with many others, and didn't think they were that good when I looked at them later on the camera. I thought even less of them when I transferred them to my phone (with a bigger screen) so put up a photograph of the bridge a little up stream (If I knew how to post a link to Thursday's photograph I would, but I don't sorry)
I've just transferred the photographs from my camera to my PC and had another look on the 22" HD montitor and some, not all, were okay. This is the best, and I admit I've had to do a little bit of processing to get it to, what I consider to be, 'fit for purpose."
It is EXACTLY what I wanted from the shot, the movement of the the water as a blur, with the steady framing of the trees, but I don't think it'll win any prizes. More work needed on this kind of subject methinks
I like this.......and it's this that keeps us going.learning.trying./not too happy with /some editing..we learning all the time..i groan at some of mine! ..then some quick photo turns out brill...
@ltodd Lyn, Thank you so much for the link, and for the advice. I had set the camera to Manual, but hadn't changed the ISO. I shall revisit this location this coming week, try what you have said and post the results (tagging you in)
Thank you again, really appreciate it
@phil_sandford :-D The best part of a 365 project, is that 'tomorrow' is always a new day with a clean slate & in reality, there are no 'mistakes', only lessons learnt!!
I've mucked up plenty of times during my first year. Posted a few, not posted others. It is a learning curve, but a fun one. You'll probably go back to the same spot next time and nail it :)
I see you used ISO 400 for this & it might be easier to get a longer exposure with fixed iso of 100, and a bit longer exposure than 0.2 sec, with f stop moved to f16?
Thank you again, really appreciate it
