Amamzintoti - the weather was behaving or misbehaving depending on how you look at it. Heavy cloud cover for the entire week, not good for sunbathing but great moody weather if you are taking photographs. Cloud cover offers some great advantages, apart from the obvious attraction great clouds add to a photograph clouds diffuse the light making it soft and even.
We were staying with Claudina's parents on the eighteenth floor which has a beautiful view of the Indian Ocean, we took a walk along the beach early one morning and I took the following series of pics.
 |
| View of the beach from Sweetwater Flats |
 |
| Using the local flora and my wife to add interest to the beach |
 |
| View towards the flats - the clouds provide even light on a scene that usually contrasts markedly |
 |
| Longer exposures are possible on cloudy days, I use low ISO with great depth F22+ which gives slower shutter speeds - use a tripod |
 |
| Slow shutter speed again - photograph taken with a super wide 17mm |
 |
| Taken towards the Toti sea pool |
Great photos Jarrell, really like the notes on how they were captured and the settings you used.
