Walnut Beach Pier long exposures

Walnut Beach Pier long exposures

For this post I will share a few more shots taken the other mornings at Walnut Beach of the pier.

These were taken using my New Filter Kit the Haida M10 System and using a 10 Stop ND Filter

I have just started using this system to get this dort of effects I would love if you have the time to have you give some feedback on which is your favorite of these 4 shots.

Starting with one side of the pier.

Using the filter I was able to take long exposures, the first one was a 30 second exposure, the reason I wanted to be able to do longer exposures when the light was out is to get the soft feel to the water,

This next shot is a 20 Second exposure looking under the pier, there were light waves coming in but that has been smoothed out with an exposure this long.

And now a shot on the other side of the pier, this one a 30 Second exposure, of course with exposures this long a tripod is essential.

And a last shot of the pier this time a little further away from it.

All shots are great, but I do also like the first photo most, because of the clouds - they look just like I wanted them in my sunrise a few days ago ;)

If you had removed these crossing boards, then we could have seen through the whole length of the pier, and then the second photo would have been my absolute favorite :)

I think, you have a perfect place to play with the filters, and you are doing a great work. The water is so wonderfully smooth, and as I said above, the clouds are just as I like them 😊

Thanks for your feedback I suspect if I removed those crossing boards the pier may collapse and the locals would not be happy LOL
I do of course plan on doing more shots with the filters I am loving them and what they can do :)

Wouldn't you do anything for a good photo? lol
I have just seen, that doing this would be a lot of work, and it might take a few sunrises until you are finished ;)

Well anything within reason I think I would be arrested well before finishing chopping them out so it would be wasted effort

Why arrested? Don't they understand "art"? ;)

That was just fun, but...
An artist is going to plant trees in our stadium, calls it "art", gets paid (I don't want to know the additional costs we tax payers have to pay) and nobody gets arrested:
https://forforest.net/en/
https://www.visitklagenfurt.at/en/forforest/art-project.html

I do love trees - in the forest, in a park... alive... these 299 trees have been delivered in spring, have been waiting aside the stadium, and some have already died because of the heat, but they will still be part of this "art installation".

I am not sure I understand art, I to like trees but moving trees into a stadium when there are so many forests in your country, and secondly, I wonder will the transplant the trees back when its finished or just trash them?

As far as I know, the trees come from tree nursereys and after the project "FOR FOREST" is finished, they should be transplanted near the stadium - the trees, which will be still alive then.

I just cannot see any sense in this project, where visitors sit in the stadium and look down at the trees. It is not allowed to walk through this little forest.

I do agree that is kind of bizarre to me also, why not go and see real trees in their natural environment and not in a stadium

I love the effects of the long exposure.

I am going to go out on a limb here because although I almost bit on the first one as my favorite, it ended up that I like #3 as a favorite. Because it is the other side of the dock, the color is more dominant in my vision and the back is more focused. It is more pleasing to my eye. I also like having the more water visible, although, I must admit, I usually love more of the subject in a direct line.

Great job on these and thanks for being a great Guide for #SteemUSA!

Thanks Kindly my friend I went back and forth on which to put first between the first and third one as I did like them both, the first one seems to be the most popular from comments, but that may be because many do not scroll down to see the others I suspect LOL

I do appreciate your feedback and it makes sense to me what your saying

dswigle (70) 5 years ago

I can actually see why most like it. When I went back again, the first really seems like the natural choice as I love the placement of the pier.

So, it was a real dilemma and I can agree that the first is probably better photographically, but, I like the third when I pull out the pieces individually.
