You perfectly describe this feeling that I have experienced so many times face to the nature in all its splendor. One of the headiest emotions, and probably the one that more happiness has given me in photography. When we reach this point, when nothing matters more than the photo we are still waiting, it's when the best may come. The best picture always still has to come... Thanks for it ! My best wishes, Ted :) Marc -----Mensaje original----- De: lug-bounces+foto=marcdufour.net at leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+foto=marcdufour.net at leica-users.org] En nombre de tedgrant at shaw.ca Enviado el: jueves, 20 de diciembre de 2012 20:50 Para: Leica Users Group Asunto: Re: [Leica] The Sea never ends Marc Dufour SHOWED: Subject: [Leica] The Sea never ends > http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Marc/The+Sea+never+ends/ <<<<< Bon jour Marc, Shooting waves at ocean or huge lakes shores when the wind and high tide have built huge waves as we see here so beautifully captured. Once one begins shooting such as you have here, it can become mesmerizing and you see each almost as a living moment better than the one before. So shoot again! :-) Many years ago I was on assignment shooting tourist scenes around Lake Superior, the largest of the Great Lakes of Canada.One day a wind storm came up and the waves were magnificent! I thought, "Oh beauty, gotta have some of those!" :-) Well I did........... "25 rolls of 36 exposure Kodachrome later I figured I should stop!!!" :-) It was like being affected by a drug as each wave crashed ashore. I swore it was better than the last! So it was "CLICK, CLICK - CLICK" adinfinitum! The light changed, unfortunately and took the magic of highlights away so much, it lost the visual impact. :-( I was glad it wasn't me who did the editing on that shoot. :-) The wonderful days of clients who wanted perfection and cost was meaningless! :-) Yours are beautitiful. Merci! cheers, ted _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group. See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
