    Beautiful, love the white overload.

  • Peter Hill replied

    Actually the whiteness is pretty much as is. The shot was just after sunrise, but the whole river was cloaked in fog. It was very eerie and moody and this particular scene quite surreal.

    again so much is going on in this shot yet so simple, a feast for the eyes – I’m a sucker for b&w! What settings did you use?

  • Peter Hill replied

    oooh, sorry Lisa for the late reply – I totally missed this. From memory: 70mm (Canon EF 70-300mm DO IS zoom), ISO 100, f5.6, about 1/90th sec, hand held, on shore. Cropped. Shot in colour then desaturated, though that hardly changed anything!
