White Pelican Impressions
Whenever I have the chance, I love doing in-camera effects.
This afternoon in Placida, while on Artie's Post-Xmas IPT,
The Pelicans and reflections from a boat were screaming for attention, and I got some of the participants to get their feet wet at using slow shutter speeds to create pleasing abstractions.
D300, 70-200/2.8 plus 1.4X
S (Tv) @ 1/13 of a second.
ISO 250
Moving the camera slightly while pressing the shutter.
Comments appreciated :)
Very nice Fabs... I've missed seeing your abstract work on the various discussions forums and look forward to seeing more here. I really like how the various color reflections line up with the pelicans' heads, it adds another dimension to the image. I assume S is shutter priority? If so, what did the camera set for the aperture on this image?
Hi Josh From the tech info it was at 1/13 sec We vary the SS according to distance and movement sped/direction
Fabs I'm impressed Did not think of doing any blurs that day I think I was overwhelmed by fish!!!!:)
Thanks, Josh. According to the data, it was f/40 :eek:Originally Posted by Josh O'Donnell
f/40, wowsers! I figured it was pretty small but that's really pushing it to the limit!
I love the artistic quality that the blur provides in the birds and reflections. Beautiful work Fabs.
Love the colors!
