"Sollifjell" at Finnsnes today

[Tommi]

A great "pakarang slightly from above"-view Kristian!

[Sterkoder]

Tried the view with the brand new "Edøyfjord", but failed to focus completely

I would say that is not a focus problem, it's motion blur!
Nice composition although.

[Sterkoder]

Yes, you are so correct.
I turned my camera sideways, and zoomed to max.
At this point there MUST be motion blur as a result
(Despite what I've said about the mono-pod before, it seems like I just might buy one rather soon than late).

[Tommi]

There's actually a problem with monopods, they don't handle portrait oriented pictures too well.
In the first place try to get down the exposure time! Higher ISO perhaps?

"Lødingen"



I've seen a couple of straight on from the rear in this thread, so I'll add one to, "Bergen Faith"

The view of hsc "Ladejarl" today

[Ralf__]

I like #50/2. This is a seldom view of a ship, but a very interesting one. No one is thinking about the rear design of a cargo vessel and so it is severely driven by needs. And this is a fascinating look. Well done, Kristian!

Thank you Ralf

"Nordstjernen" on her last visit in Harstad.

Nice reflections! I mean, on the hull of Nordstjernen, and on the bulb of Olympic Hera.

"Morten Einar"

[ombugge]

Doesn't look like anybody is tending the lines on the "Morten Einar".

Wow, that's an incredible photo!

Do you know what the green thing is in/on the water below and right of the bulb bow? Is it a reflection on the water, a flare from your lens or a jellyfish glowing in the water?
