Sunsets and Long Exposures

Before the recent storms I was able to head out to a spot along the local coast to do some exploring and set up a few compositions. I was most intetested in featuring the incoming storm clouds and the really cool rock formations that this location has to offer as foreground interest.

These clouds really do a great job of leading the eye into the frame as they function as leading lines due to how they just out into the water. This is important because it adds depth to the photo and tends to give the viewer the feeling they could possibly step right into the image and walk off into the distance.

I shot this on what is almost certainly my favorite camera I have ever owned, the Nikon D750 (I paired it with the Nikkor 16-35 mm f/4 wide angle lens). I've owned more compact and contemporaty set ups, higher resolution set ups, and setups that were far more suited for hybrid (an equal balance between photography and videography) run-and-gun style shooting, and while I do like other cameras more for their video features, the quality of the Nikon image files never fails to bring me joy.

I had briefly toyed with the idea of selling the camera some time back to balance out a little of the cost of a newer rig I was tempted to buy, I'm glad I didn't. I most definitely would have regretted it.

Dear Nikon D750,

You're the best.

Sincerely,

Me.

Let's go exploring.

Location Scouting

This past weekend I went out to scout a location for future photography expeditions. I don't like giving away some locations, so I won't be saying where this is, but its rock formations are properly spectacular.

This place is run by the county (I believe) so it has a hard closure time that happened to be about 35 minutes before proper sunset. Because of this I knew I wasn't going to be able to photograph it in the light I really wanted, with the sun 15° or less from the horizon line, so I treated this afternoon out more as a scouting expedition as we hiked about looking for various composition locations.

Despite this I did get one or two shots I quite liked, so after I get them edited I'll post them here on the blog and my social media sites.

Let's go exploring.
