Great photos. What settings did you use?

Thanks, bulb mode/F16/ISO100,long exposure NR on,
Top & btm were 6-7sec & the middle one a bit longer at 12sec.
Not sure if i like NR on or off as it takes twice as long to be able to shoot again.
I'm thinking shorter exposure time might have yielded better results.
Shot with my love it/hate it 105mm 2.8 macro lens.

Got another shot on the news a few days ago:



Submitted this on the 31st but obviously I've had a bit too much screen time as it wasn't aired :p

Here are some random photos I took during the holidays:

Started it off with a hike just outside Grahamstown in the Assegai Valley on the Mosslands Citrus Farm:

Misty Sunrise at our Riverside cabins:

Firey Sunset:

Walked 28km got horribly lost, ran out of water got many blisters. Was quite an adventure though.

Next trip was up to Hogsback to finalize our wedding arrangements:

At the foot of a hog:

Then stayed over in Glen Gariff for a while and got a stormy new years summer day:

Made a time lapse of that storm, but when the lightning came close I hauled ass so its only a 16 sec clip, which I'll keep for later
