Nice one pook. Mind sharing how you did that?

 

I did nothing... I just happened across a 72 Galaxie with a fake arm sticking out of the hood

 

Hah, now that's straight-up weird. I thought you set that up either physically or in post

 

Not as sharp as I'd like but it flew off when I tried geting closer

I don't want to say they're common, but that type of thing was fairly common in the late 90s in the states at least.

I completely borked the stars shot but since the other stack turned out even worse this will have to do. I wish I had more time and access to pollution-free skies to practice these shots, they look so damned good if done right.

Tilt and shift lens or post-processed? Nice shot.

Post Processed. Couldn't even thing about affording a tilt-shift lens

 

Yeah me either - huge price for a lens which has quite niche use. It's a shame - if there was a cheaper one, even if image quality wasn't great, it would make a fun novelty lens for experimentation.

 

Jeez Mclean. Those shots are the dogs nuts.

 

Aw shucks, you're makin' me blush! Seriously mate thanks for that comment - means a lot coming from someone whose work I admire.

Was there lots of wind there Silver?

The water ripples look fairly frozen-in-place but you have a shedload of cloud movement. Or is it two shots composited?

 

Single shots at 8 and 10 seconds respectively.

It was super-calm at ground level, but the clouds were racing across the sky. The land's only ten miles across (if that) here on the peninsular, which creates an interesting micro-climate.

Might have helped if I'd cleaned all the sea salt off the lens for the first one though. The lens flare isn't as clean as it should have been.


Edit: The waves in the first shot are caused by sand ripples, so they wouldn't be moving anywhere fast.

 

You called?
