West Country

My enjoyment of 'seascape' photography is pretty much offset by my dislike of long car journeys. A glance at Google Maps pointed in the direction of the West Country, specifically Clevedon which has a pier (and unlike Weston, a beach which doesn't have a shore line 2 miles out....).

View of the pier at Clevedon via my EF 135 f/2L - timed perfectly to include the background vessel.

Long exposure from the same location, this time at 24mm. I could only manage 20 seconds due to the brightness on the day, but good to see some cloud movement.


Robin

My unofficial project for the day was to try and get a photo of a robin, a bird that holds sentimental significance to my girlfriend. Luckily we bumped in to a few at Cabot Park in Bristol that were more than a little happy to pose. I learnt a thing or two about bird photography, a smaller aperture being the main one. Not massively enthused by my results here, so this is still unfinished business....
