Graham John Willetts's Comments

Corfe Castle in the Swirling Mists.
5 stars

Graham John Willetts(2nd September 2020)

Amazing work. 5 stars off me.

Ely Cathedral crossing

Graham John Willetts(9th August 2020)

One of the nicest Cathedrals in the country. Great capture of a great building.

Reflection

Graham John Willetts(9th August 2020)

Thank you for your helpful comments. The Cathedral was very busy and I would have needed to wait forever to get a picture void of people. Personally, I like the moment captured as realistically as possible and for me the inclusion of the people helps to seal the moment as people mill around the sacred space. I took this hand held and did not have the luxury of a tripod. Still pleased with the result. Hope the picture brought you some pleasure. Take care. Graham

Deer

Graham John Willetts(9th August 2020)

Hi Edward. I was using a Canon 100-400 L series Lens set at 8.0 using aperture priority. AV. I have found using AV @ 8.0 produces a much sharper picture. Hope this helps. Graham

5 stars

Graham John Willetts(2nd August 2020)

What looks like a marble base is actually a thin layer of water causing the reflection. For me, this is one of the most pleasing shots I have ever taken.

Smaller than a redshank, turnstones have a mottled appearance with brown or chestnut and black upperparts and brown and white or black and white head pattern, whilst their underparts are white and legs orange. They spend most of their time creeping and fluttering over rocks, picking out food from under stones.
