Description soon it will be winter again here on the northern hemisphere.

right now the leaves are about to turn yellow and everybody is complaining about the not-so-great summer we had.

so i post this image from a past winter to show that there is amazing beauty in the upcoming season as well.. even though you probably won't bring your swimwear

well.. we get fog fog fog too.. sometimes it happens that there is no sun for three weeks in a row.
at least it gets cold for some days too.

back then a friend of mine saw the picture too and recommended it to a local company to use it as their christmas card..
it was fun having someone publish a picture of mine.

hehe.. why?
because we get ice on a twig?
it'd be much cooler if it were flavoured though *grin

Awesome picture!
Really breathtaking!

What kind of shutterspeed, aparture etc did you use ? Would be cool to try and take something like it sometime

swissloko In reply to Zlathar [2007-10-04 19:03:44 +0000 UTC]

ok.. i looked it up for you

it was 400mm
1/6 sec
f 18

if i remember right i used a tripod there.
if you're havin to shoot handheld you should start at around 1/20th of a second. like that you already get some movement and might be able to hold the camera steady enough for that the static parts of the picture don't blur too much.
and the wider the lens angle.. the better you're able to handhold longer shutter times.

thanks for the comment.
cheers
