Angry Sea.
Anyone out there taken a series of shots only to find they had their camera on the wrong setting?
Prior to taking this shot I had been trying to take shots at a wedding in low light, so I cranked up the ISO. Now, every (well, almost every) time I finish a subject I reset everything so I know that should I need the camera quickly I have it all ready to go. But after a few pints at a wedding, things begin to slip!
Thinking all was hunky-dory I started to flick away on a walk on New Zealand’s North Island. It wasn’t till a little later that I found I had the ISO at 800-school boy error. However it did let me shoot faster which meant I could freeze the water as it hit the rocks, lucky break!
For this photo I positioned myself, put the camera on rapid fire and waited for a big wave. I got three shots off (this being the best of them, obviously!) before I had to do the protective spin-hunch-embrace maneuver (you know the one) before the camera got wet.
