Weird weather

Yesterday Brunswick was treated to about 5 seasons in one day. Bright sunshine, gales, snow, hail, rain, cold then heat.

I wanted to get a shot of some of the blossom that has sprung up everywhere of late but with a sense of the elements too. This is a 2 second exposure with a tiny aperture and the polariser in full effect to get the flowers in motion. It took quite a few attempts but this is the best one I managed.

  1. what’s with the polariser? they make skies bluer, right? were you using it to cut down more light so you could leave the shutter open for longer?

  2. Exacto, Bert, it’s to cut down on the light hitting the sensor for longer exposures. It’s dead handy for daytime shots as well as making skies bluer/ reducing reflection from water.
