The new tripod proves itself in extreme conditions. At half past ten on the last day of June, we were in the middle of a most terrifying/exciting thunderstorm, which passed over Jeziorki. Two exposures make up the above image; the first was lit up by lightning from the north of us, which illuminated the estate like studio lights. The second exposure, of the sky to the south of us, caught two flashes. The tripod was so stable that the sky from the second photo could be superimposed upon the foreground of the first. And I must say, I'm rather pleased with the result.
Nice shot Michael - good to see the tripod is working as you had planned!

Shots, Bob! Herein the beauty of the tripod and its rock-steady head - this image is the superimposition of two exposures, each of 30+ seconds with my finger on the shutter release. The fact that the images dovetailed so precisely together is testimony to the engineering excellence of the tripod, which did not budge an iota throughout the duration of the exposures.
ReplyDeleteGood reason to be proud of !
