Newark Air Museum ~ 01Mar17

Post by Pen Pusher » Fri Mar 03, 2017 12:01 pm

I'd given up waiting for a spot of snow for my first visit to Newark this year so with the weather forecast showing scattered clouds and sunshine with a bit of a stiff breeze to blow the clouds along, I packed my Tiffen APEX Long Exposure Daylight Filter and a train trip north to Nottinghamshire. Well I got the scattered clouds and sunshine but the breeze wasn't stiff enough and even with a 30 second exposure there was not much movement in the clouds to blur them that much. I think I'll have to wait until the next Storm Doris is forecast for blurry clouds. In the order taken.

Who said the trains were overcrowded? A carriage all to my self, at least as far as Grantham.

'Anorak On'. Sitting outside Peterborough in the sidings was one of the new Virgin Azuma trains which is doing proving runs along the East coast line before entering service in 2018. Very Japanese Bullet train looking.

Some nice camera work as ever Brian - sadly when Storm Doris came through we had to close the site!

Hi Brian :P

You don't need ol' Paddyboy to tell you those are well up to standard :thumbs:

I think I will need the lungs of a Phillipino pearl diver before one of those new Virgin coaches visits Norwich :lol:

Best regards :thumb:

Nice to see LE being used on aircraft photos. Frustrating waiting on the right conditions for LE work.

Really nice. They have a nice natural look, reminds me of slide film.

Good skills.

Long Exposure I assume

Heard of its use in astronomy for example but did not realise you could do the same in daylight with a filter and a tripod.

Great set Brian. Maybe not quite the effect you wanted but the clouds have come out really well n my opinion.

Slogen51 - ND (neutral density) filters work very well on for water, particularly waterfalls.
