Jamie,
Tongue was firmly in cheek Mate, I totally agree with you, you don’t want to know what I have had to stand in/lie in/climb to get “the shot” and mostly failing. keep up the good work I am a fan.

Hi Jon,

Fair call. I have to admit I was pretty sure it was going to rain but I decided to take my chances any way. Unfortunately it didn’t pay off for me. But as you know if I didn’t try I would never have known.

Nice location Mate, but the message seemed to be “do your research” maybe you should have researched the weather forecast ?

I don’t have much noise issues, but I took my camera on a 100 km walk on the beach and went back and forth between lenses without taking precautions, so I have quite some dust on the sensor. I misplaced my rocket blower.. Not visible at low f’s, but prominent at higher ones.

Hi Morten, dust is always present no matter what your exposure. Perhaps you’re referring to noise? A great program to get rid of noise is Noise Ninja if you are using Photoshop. Also noise is a sign of underexposure so maybe you need to exposure your photo for another second or so. Best of luck and check out the blog

Then I better clean my equipment again, I get dust at those stops..
My minimum ISO is at 100, but I’ll definitely give the high f/stops a try. Obviously that lowers the shutter speed. Thanks again!

I would nearly always try to shoot at F16 on my prime lens and F22 on my 16-35mm lens. You are right though as the light fades I will drop down to around F11 which I still find is really sharp. I normally shot at ISO50 as well to try and leave the shutter for as long as possible.
