Found it

Yeah, i found it while walking thru the wet grass, to be honest, i found it while walking the dog thru the wet grass. And i decided to jump back into the house, taking the OMD with the fabulous 60mm macro and a tripod. The dog looked a bitt irritated, inspected the tripod and judged it friendly stuff. I mounted the cam overhead and took this little mushroom home as RAW. So, look down to your feet. There are a lot of things to capture, even when it rains …

Intruder

Well, nature can not be stopped. She holds out her fingers and will occupy their new space. Just watch and do not ask me to clone away that drought fingers of grass, coming in from left. That ARE the intruders :)

The flow of water

Go to your local dealer and invest some small money into ND filter. 2x, 3x and 4x ND filter are best. I took them for my wide angel lens and was lucky enough to see that the filter size matches 3 other lenses as well :). If you are smart you will take larger diameter filters and use a step-down adapter ring :) Just a tip. Now stack them together and dial down your aperture to, lets say 16 or even 22. Mount your cam on a sturdy tripod and the next river is your landscape model. Best results are with very long exposure times. 15 to 30 seconds in my case. And do not forget to dial down your ISO to the lowest value ! And now have fun

Explosion

And suddenly the sky exploded. Firework and lasershow melting together into one gigantic play of light and living colors. A stunning event in the cold night. But worth seeing. If you can join the next year it will be again on the same location on the beach, 29. March 2014. See you there
