Thanks guys! I've been slowly trying to get back into photography, It's been a few years since I've really taken my cameras out and I forgot how much I enjoy it!


Also...

It looks like a painting to me, close to surrealism, where's the catch? What kind of equipment did you use? What time of the day, or night?

That is a masterpiece of art, I am speechless.

Gilles,

I think that's a little far, but thank you. As for the details here they are:

Nikon D7000
Nikon 10-24mm
B&W CPOL Filter

Shot in raw

Post was done in photoshop but did very little to it.

As for the shooting... F5.6 1/200s ISO400 @10mm

It was late in the day with the sun setting behind me, the lower the light source the better. The wind had just died as we were grabbing our dinner at camp. The clarity of the reflection is largely to do with the filter. The single greatest way to improve shots involving water or sky is to invest in a Circular polarizer!

I've been looking for some good glass that is reasonably priced, and I think I may be sold on that one! I don't think I need a prime portrait lens, however it would be good to learn on. I tend to take more landscape shots and it appears that the 10-24 may fit the bill, I really like your style of shooting! I just hope it isn't too difficult to venture away from auto with that wide angle lens.

Hey adam.. the sigma 10-20 f3.5 is a BEAUTY for the price. I've never shot with the nikon 10-24 however.. but have tried all the other wide angles on my canon Crop body.

Going full frame now.. so it'll be up to the 16-35L me thinks.. anyways.. Back to some photos :)

Just a couple from The Harbour.

and The River..

The two inflight were shot with the Wide angle.. a Tamron 10-24 for Canon.

That's what I've got and I love it. Especially with f2.8 it's an awesome northern lights lens for me!
