Hi All
I took some R&R for a week at a North West Australian town called Broome. It's a popular destination for tourists, both local and international and especially so when the south of Australia has its winter. It has rich history as a pearling town in the past, I understand it is also one of the migatory bird entry points to Australia from the North, and you can take camel rides along the beach at sunset. These rides are very popular as is taking photos of the camels and the riders...Images of this are abundant in town to cater for the tourists who did not get it quite right... anyway, I thought I might try my hand also, so what do you think???
I used my 1D4 and a manual Zeiss 18 Distagon lens fitted with a Cir pol filter at F14 all sitting on a tripod. This Zeiss lens is my 'landscape' lens...
Shutter at 1/40 sec and ISO at 800 (oops, should have checked that..)
No flash and the presented is about 50 % of what I took. Lots of foreground and sky cut out.
AP mode, but not sure on any bias...
Thanks for looking.
