Grace in the Blue Above...

  1. Loving how the 20D held the light on this sunburst shot, and with the kit lens too :blink:

    Surge was pretty bad here, and it didn't help that this Spanish Shawl was hardly 5/8"...

  2. Excellent shots!

  3. Really great sunburst! What are the properties for that shot Matt?

     

    Cheers

  4. Excellent sunburst - and great timing with the seal!

     

    For James - (from EXIF) - 1/250, F8 ISO100.

     

    Very nice work Matt!

  5. For James - (from EXIF) - 1/250, F8 ISO100.
    No...it's 1/250, f/18, ISO100, 18-55mm kit lens @ 18mm (that last property is what has been pleasing me the most so much...the viability of the kit lens)...

     

    Thanks for the encouragement :blink:

  6. Thanks Matt - damned typos!

     

    Kit lens has done a great job with the sun as you say.

  7. I just love these sunbursts :blink: I let this one "burst" just a bit more than usual...I felt it worked for the composition...

     

    Funny how *all* these fish disappeared just before the sea lions came roaring in...

  8. Yeah, the big sunburst works for me too - nice to have a bit of detail in the kelp.

  9. Common flyby...

    Sibling rivalry? :blink:

    Quality not so great in last two (post-processing), but I like the behaviour...

  10. Excellent behaviour shots - looks like a great day!

     

    Thanks for sharing.

  11. Sealions sure are hard to shoot, aren't they? :-) They are like a "fun seeking missile."

     

    Cheers
