Positively oozing...

It's another bright start and still cold. The Met Office reveal today that March was the coldest since 1962, and the fourth coldest since records started being kept in 1910... but there is good news! Apparently, things will start to warm up at the beginning of next week. I can only respond to this welcome information with two words: hoo-bloody-ray! Really, winter has gone on long enough.

I'm out with a big lens again, shooting stuff from the local pier. I stop and have a lengthy conversation with another photographer about long exposure shooting (keeping the shutter open for several minutes in daylight and all that entails), and grabbing the occasional opportunity as the sun breaks through the increasing cloud, to make a photographs positively oozing with telephoto compression.







300mm f/4D AF-S Nikkor with TC-14EII converter. 1/1600 second at f/5.6. ISO 400. Monopod.
