    Awesome capture, though you’re brave to take your camera out in this :P dust could hurt it, we got this up in QLD later on, though not this bad

  • follicle replied

    it was more the water 5cm below the rig that I was worried about if the truth be told! I had a little junior tripod under it and the 14 to 24mm lens weight wasn’t half making it creak in agony!

  • RevolutionGFX

    RevolutionGFX

    lol that close huh, always worth the photo as long as your camera doesnt go swimming :P in dust or water
