Landscape Photography Course: Day two

Dera Den

 

Day Two took us to a heavily wooded valley just off the Cupar Road. Here, after a short clamber up a rock or two we were presented with a small stream or 'burn' swollen with recent rain and the remnants of autumn leaves. Yesterday had all been hand held shots. Today, we were on tripods and long exposures. This was something I had looked forward to. I was not disappointed.

Mark pointed out possible vantage points and things that were to either help or hinder our composition. I was glad to have waterproof shoes on, some of the shots were taken with all five legs in the water! (Three for the tripod, two for me)

I love the 'liquid metal' look of water when taken with a long exposure. We are talking 4 seconds at F22 and ISO 100 for most of the shots below.
