Long Exposure
18.05.22
As the skies greyed over, my mind was shouting black and white. Sketchy waves nearly had me a few times and the sea spray wrote off 8most of the images!

Returning to an old favourite, the Bathing Pools. I didn’t check the tides like I normally do and the clouds didn’t really inspire but a long exposure rescued the trip!

This was a bit of an afterthought. The sky looked promising earlier but I couldn’t make up my mind where I wanted to be.

Bitterly cold again, made a schoolboy error of leaving my gloves in the car. Still, the walk back up got the blood pumping. I had hoped the sun would light up the pier but it rises too far north now. Probably should have tried this in the winter but this pier is only exposed when the tide is below 3.5m so it can only be done early a few days every couple weeks.

Wind direction was ideal for a long exposure of the Bathing Pools this morning. Although I’m completely over this area (mainly overshooting and laziness), I still keep coming back for ‘just one more shot’, hoping the perfect image will fall into place.

I probably should have just stayed in bed this morning, but I just couldn’t resist the temptation to head out in the hope of a magical sunrise. As expected once I looked outside, it was pretty dull so I had to make do with this.

One of those little pleasures in life, always rewarding no matter what time of year you go.

There was potential on the horizon but the clouds moved in so Plan B was on the cards.

Long exposure can be extremely rewarding sometimes. With the right amount of cloud cover and wind speed you can create some streaky effects in the sky.

I’m genuinely gutted we couldn’t celebrate properly today, not only for Liberation Day but just being with all our mates and letting the kids mingle and have fun. On the plus side, I wasn’t drunk so I could shoot out and grab some photographs to make up for it.

Simple technique but one that can be really effective in the right conditions.

Finding inspiration is all part of the challenge but on days like this it’s harder than ever to get a shot I’m happy with. The tides, wind direction and cloud cover were just about favourable to pull this one off. A few more breaks in the cloud would have been nice but you can’t win them all!

The tides were lapping over the edge of the pier at Les Amarreurs, just missed the golden glow as the sun went down but I still like this one.

The tides worked out perfectly to line up the larger rocks and the incoming waves washing over the pebbles in the foreground. Black & white seemed appropriate for a Halloween themed landscape.
