Ghosting Gull
One from the trip to Norway with a strange guy everybody know's here... :cool:

Straigt out the cam:
Nikon D3
Nikkor AF-S 300/2.8
Iso 200
0,8 sec @f/4
-2/3 EV
Rear curtain fill flash

I like the ghosting effect and it's almost like the gull is painting the background :rolleyes:

I suspect people will either love this or hate it. I'm in the former category, I think it is great.

Hello Pat

Yeh this works a treat and I like how you always try something different. Pat try explaining how you achieved this effect. I would do it but your english is better than mine :biggrin:

Really like this. Always good to see someone trying something different. For me I'd maybe crop something off the top as the pure white draws the eye, but still love it as it is.
