The Girl and the Sea by LevTComment by ThingFish: Lovely image indeed. One question. It strikes me that you seem to have taken this shot from quite a high angle looking down on the girl and also from quite close to the girl. You used a 12-24mm lens. Were you standing on a lifesavers tower? (unlikely as lifesavers towers are not right on the edge of the water) Or maybe you are a giant and the girl is a dwarf :) But seriously, I would like to know. |

The Girl and the Sea by LevTComment by sarampo: I was sooo glad that this got recognized in the DPC community, it's so wonderfully done, great atmosphere, great scenario, and the water motion is just perfect.
Congratulations on an awesome image!

Just one thing, are you sure it was a 10 stop ND? I would think 0.8 seconds with a 10 stop at f5.6/ISO 200 would have resulted in a nearly black image no matter how bright the sun was. Could you check it out please, it is intriguing. |
Andres, that's correct, I just double-checked my EXIF. why would you think it is strange? without the filter the exposure would be 1000x smaller, i.e. 1/1250s, quite normal for a bright daylight. |
I guess 5.6 is really not all that small, I was probably intuitively thrown off by the apparent softness of the light which leads you to think of a cloudy day. You are correct regarding the math. Thank you for answering my question.
Once again, GREAT IMAGE !! |
