Evening ride...


Early evening, and a trip to the Sandbanks chain ferry to photograph what ever takes my interest as it passes by.
I shoot the usual images of water craft coming and going but it's the five horse riders on Studland beach that catches my eye, just over a mile (1.6 km) distant (image), with Old Harry Rocks visible top left, 2.5 miles (4km) away. It is a charactistic of long telephoto lenses to compress planes in an image, giving the appearance of objects being closer together than they actually are.

300mm f/2.8 AF-S VR Nikkor. x1.4 TC-14EII teleconverter. VR off. 1/2000 second at f/5. -0.33 EV. ISO 400. Monopod.
