I loved the first shot, the HDR version. Great use of the lines.

[@huwalban]

Thank you. With the benefit of retrospect, the light was probably - actually - at its best and most useable right then but it was worth the continued explore of the options to be even more prepared next time! Cheers for the comment and the support.

[@rogerlush3344]

Additional bonus from nearer to home, thanks Huw for showing us that we need to plan ahead, but also for showing us that as the saying goes, the best laid schemes of light and men oft go awry 😊 we are at the mercy of the elements at the end of the day!

[@huwalban]

That we are Roger! Have a great break in Croatia!

[@paulduckworth1121]

Thank you Huw, another really good video.
As has been said, "you always need a plan, it gives you something to deviate from"

[@huwalban]

Ha ha, I like that phrase - I might need to pinch it! Hope all is good with you buddy?

[@GuidoVanDeWater]

Bless you, hope you didn't catch a cold up there. Nice video and we'll explained. Grt guido

[@huwalban]

Thanks Guido. Nope, no colds or ailments as a result! Just a good evening out in the landscape, and home too before it got dark which is a bit of a novelty for me! Hope all good with you sir.

What is the camera and lense that you use
I think something sigma ?

[@huwalban]

Hello there. I'm using a Sigma fpL camera, and the lens being used was the 28-70 f/2.8 Contemporary. The fpL is an awesome camera for landscape photography, but not as strong as an all purpose camera system. If you are into genres that reward a steady consistent approach, and don't rely on autofocus or raw processing power then this camera is excellent. I've owned mine since 2021 and love it! Thank you for the support of my channel, and for leaving me a comment. It is appreciated.
