Tarawera Times

Another early start!

Woke this morning before 6, must have been after yesterday morning's effort. Could see the sky was quite clear and thought I would try and get a very slow shutter speed before the light really came up, so just popped down onto the reserve. Had to use the bulb setting as exposed this for 95 sec... note to self...next time take a watch with a second hand so that I can see how long and not have to count...1..9..9..2..9..9...etc. The result has given the clouds quite an impressionistic look. Although there was a little bit of colour, it didn't end up nearly as impressive as yesterday morning.

So an early upload as have a busy day, driving through to Matamata this afternoon to stay with friend Sue (occasional fellow blipper Ivanbar1) and give a presentation to their camera club, something that I don't do easily, but try not to turn challenges down.

And huge thanks to the response to my early dawn shot yesterday morning....thrilled to see it in the popular section.
