    Got a nice early outing this morning after all the shit weather. Turned out a glorious morning, absolutely beautiful and very enjoyable walk. The Mourne Mountains Co. Down.

    I have an Instagram that I use very rarely. But I'd fire it up to look at your photos, Andy. :heart_eyes: What's your "handle" or whatever your user name is called on Instagram?

    Andy, Nice setup ! and even better pictures!
    Do you use an ND filter ? or just the small aperture and low ISO ?
    Have you ever been caught by a wave ?

    I rode past this view multiple times, last weekend I remembered to bring the camera with me, I prefer it to just images taken with the mobile phone.
    These blue agaves are used to distill tequila, and the plantation is near the town of Tequila.

    What a great photo, Armondo. As a tequila aficionado, I love this photo. I can now better picture where my tequila comes from and will enjoy it even more! :):yum

    Yes usually a graduated nd filter for the sky, its usually enough to get the shutter speed to around half a second which is perfect for getting that movment effect in the waves. I do come home with wet feet sometimes :joy: the worst problem is sea spray though if its windy, have to keep a microfibre in my pocket and wipe the lens before taking a shot. Not to mention giving my gear a good clean when I get home!

    Do you use a tripod when your shutter speed is that slow, Andy? How do you clean your gear?

    Yes, tripod is a must. You can manage to get sharp images with todays stabilisation in cameras and lenses but half a second is pushing it to the limits, especially when your standing on uneven surfaces and getting battered with strong winds and usually out of breath from a bit of a hike.
    Just a good wipe down with a good clean microfibre cloth is good enough. I sometimes use Zeiss lens wipes too which are great, they are individually packaged wet tissues which are cheap if you buy a load of them on ebay or amazon.
