1/8000 Sand Blowing

I experimented with movement, because the sand was blowing wildly. I decided to lie down in the sand and shoot as if I was seeing this distant view at eye level. I used my long lens at nearly 300mm. This one was shot at 1/8000 so the sand was frozen in the air, despite the high wind.

Great pov and capture. I hope your camera wasn't damaged.

Rich detail… I can’t imagine shooting in those conditions. You must have has a pretty high ISO to shoot at such a fast shutter speed.

A beautiful result. It was worth your efforts.

Well done! I tried similar shots today in the wind with sand blowing. Mine weren't worth the effort. This is great.
