Sunset Snapper
Volcanic Sunset
With the news of clouds of volcanic ash drifting across the UK from Iceland and weather reports saying that we are in for some colourful sunsets I just had to get out with the camera.
Sadly the tide was low so it was necessary to wade out ankle deep in thick mud at Dell Quay, West Sussex to find some water, difficult conditions with the tripod sinking in the mud but it was well worth the effort with amazing red glows in the sky after the sun had dropped below the horizon.
Nice for photography but bad news for commuters stranded at all airports in UK due to all flights being cancelled due to potential problems of the ash damaging the aircraft engines!
30 second long exposure using B+W 6 stop ND filter + Lee 0.9 ND grad filter over the sky with a sinking tripod!
Thanks for any comments you may wish to leave.
