Grey Seal in Sandstorm

[Andreas Liedmann]

Hi folks ... here I am :wave: .... back again with an image I posted before ( or one of the series ) . Cannot remember when it was posted from my side .... so I gave it a new go with different software and knowledge .

Love the soft look of the frame , due to the techs and the strong wind blowing the sand across the beach .

F 6,3 ; Iso 2000 ; 1/250 sec ; man exp and auto iso
With hindsight , I might have gone even lower with the SS for an even more soft look&feel in the original capture . But I was afraid , due to the strong wind , to get no sharpness into the subject . Luckily this female was not moving for a short time.

Processed with Capture One 20 and PSCC 2020 ; slightly cropped for comp

Thanks for looking and commenting to my previous thread

Cheers Andreas

Love the mood and feel to this one. Nice framing and low angle as well.

Hi Andreas -- Loved the feel here , almost mystical. well composed and nice tones where it matters. Certainly you have shown the way on how to deal with foggy images. Superbly done.

TFS !

Andreas, really like the mood you created here. As mentioned by others, kind of mystical, but sharp where necessary. Great photo.
