Originally posted by Mercifulfate They are all very nice but Number 2 caught my eye the most. Have you ever thought about using filters to stop down about 10 stops or so and then allowing the shutter to remain open to really accentuate the movement of the clouds? Everything would still be focus and you could play with the colors a bit if you wanted to but you would really capture the movement of those clouds.
Thanks! Frankly I did use a 10 stop filter for that photo (and the one above). Because it was an unusual bright winter day with not that much wind I couldn't achieve a slow enough shutter speed to get a lot of movement in the clouds. Don't get me wrong. You gave me solid advice and I appreciate that. Only, in this instance I was a bit ahead of you.

Originally posted by Dan Paris I agree with the others, the last one stands out
Dan, thanks! The first and the fifth were the ones that worked the best on social media.
Originally posted by reh321 I agree - I always like reflections, and the difference in colors and textures is striking.
Thank you! Like you I am a sucker for a good reflection. One reason I love to shoot near water.

... and Merry Christmas to you and yours
Thanks Norbert! I wish you a warm, cosy and 'fröhliche Weihnachten' my friend. One day I'll take my camera to the German and Danish Waddensea because I'd like to scout that part of my favorite playing ground.
