Herb Riddle ^club has replied to gezginruh ^club

Thanks for these great words Füsun. I was just finishing my set of photos when I spied this girl too. How the legs of her tripod kept level I do not know in that very soft sand. Maybe she got better photos than I did, you might tell later.
Enjoy the rest of this Sunday too. Herb

another excellent shot, compo, reflections, and colors, wow!

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to LutzP ^club

When we see other people capturing light like this we are all a bit jealous Lutz. Because I was staying so near (only 200metres away) I could come here as soon as I saw the light like this. A wonderful moment for sure. ~ Herb

Ah yes Uwe. We all have our heart-beat raised when seeing conditions like this. Maybe moreso if we have our tripods with us.

Keith Burton ^club

Utterly wonderful Herb! The view, the light, especially where reflected on the wet sand and the gorgeous colours, have all come together beautifully..!! I love the silhouetted photographer (and her reflection on the sand) and she is perfectly positioned in the frame.

I'm really looking forward to seeing more from this location!

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to Keith Burton ^club

Thanks Keith, always good to see you and your comments, especially when an image pleases you so much. I had just finished taking my series of pictures and I thought this girl would be taking the same but no she went further out onto the sands to get a pure sunset. I was not going to post this as at first as I thought it not as good as my originals but when I saw it big on here, maybe this was the winner by far. You will be able to judge yourself in due course.

Andy Rodker ^club

Superb, Herb! I certainly haven't been there on two fronts, 1) geographically speaking and 2) I have never owned a tripod!

5 years ago.

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to Andy Rodker ^club

Hi Andy, as said before you are missing out on Ireland but such a talented photographer as you, not to have owned a tripod is almost criminal but I guess it all depends on your camera, lenses and photo topics. I have three and a monopod! Anyway -very pleased you enjoyed this -which in reality was also done hand-held :)

Steve Paxton ^club

That I can vouch for that there is nothing like wet sand under these conditions. Soft wet sand is a killer you just have to level later only real way not unless you have sand boots. you captured the colours just perfectly there is no better way to end the day. you may well have kept dry feet but the waves may have looked better on a longer shot. love this my self from NZ when I got wet sand.

our sand is not fine enough to hold water . hope you got a chip full.

5 years ago. Edited 5 years ago.

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to Steve Paxton ^club

Thank you for this Steve. I think perhaps my feet were a little wet but the sand I was on was dryer than the stuff she was on. She was probably after a shot like this one of yours which is excellent. I had taken some of the sea on a longer exposure but I was not entirely happy with them. This taken, just after I had packed away my tripod and filter and was heading back up the hill to our cottage here. Yes, I took many of this light and hope to share more here shortly.

The lady photographer makes a good subject in this already beautiful picture Herb. I wish I was that committed ;-)) Love the colours, silhouette and reflections. Cheers, Rosa.

Hi Rosa, always good to see you here. Yes, she was perhaps more committed than me, but I had been here almost an hour by this time too. Dinner was almost on the table:) Good that you enjoyed the ingredients here -as they all came together for me.

Peter_Private_Box ^club

Hi Herb

I really like this!

Superb colours and great composition to include the lady. So your pictures are probably better... (unless you reciprocated roles..)
My guess is that she's running a low ISO to get a few seconds exposure, and hence some ethereal misty effect off the water...

Best Wishes, and a good weekend
Peter

Herb Riddle ^club has replied to Peter_Private_Box ^club

Hi Peter and apologies for not answering immediately. (I did read it but then got distracted.) One of my other photos now posted too but my best still to come (I think) but it is all in the eye of the beholder. I did not think much of this at first but seeing it on here now makes me think that the human element certainly adds to an already great scene and so this might well be counted as the best in the end. I took some slow exposure ones too but not of the general scene in this lighting so she might well have done better there :) Glad you are liking them anyway.

Best Wishes, Herb
