As the title suggests, it’s sometimes the simplest of shots that works best. I was actually walking across the beach to the wreck when I crouched down and saw the reflection of the sun on the beach, made a perfect composition wouldn’t you say? Using my Singh Ray reverse grad filter to bring the sky… Continue reading Simplest Is Sometimes Best

I never understand why when you have this on… Continue reading That Perfect Sunset
