Reflections On The Sand

Reflections On The Sand

The weather brightened up this afternoon so made a quick trip to my local beach at Hayling Island, Hampshire, apologies for posting sunset images from this location again but with very low tides and the position of the setting sun very few locations are worth capturing in my area!

Anyway, pleased to report I found some colour (which was not black or grey), clouds in the sky and reflections on the wet sand - the perfect combination for some sunset snaps!

1/3 second exposure using Lee 0.9 + 0.6 (reversed) ND grad filters.

Thanks for any comments you may wish to leave.

Contrast

Contrast

I thought I would post another from yesterday’s session at Hayling Island beach, Hampshire showing the contrast between the heavy black moody sky and the white water surf in the foreground.

As clouds had blanked out the sunset I spent a while trying different shutter speeds to capture the movement of the water around the wooden groyne - I liked this one the best at 5 seconds exposure – what do you think?

5 second exposure using Lee 0.9 ND grad over that black sky!

Menacing Black Sky

Menacing Black Sky

Paid a visit to my local beach at Hayling Island, Hampshire late this afternoon with the hope of capturing some interesting sunset colours but was greated with thick black clouds!

This image shows the contrast between the menacing black sky and the waves being forced up beach by the strong westerly wind and managed to capture the reflection of the groyne on the wet sand – not the best sunset but at I managed to get for an hour without getting wet!

1.3 second exposure using Lee 0.9 ND filter over the menacing black sky.

Beach Light

Beach Light

Went for a quick trip to Sandy Point, Hayling Island, Hampshire late this afternoon to capture the sunset.
As I parked the car I noticed one of my Flickr pals, Paul (www.flickr.com/photos/visible-landscape/) was parked up contemplating if he would try a few shots and I convinced to give it a try for an hour – hope it was worth while Paul?

Not the greatest of sunsets but managed to catch the light & shadows on the waves as they rolled up the beach!

3 second exposure using Lee 0.9 ND grad filter over the sky.
