Awaiting the early-morning ferry to England, just after a late autumn dawn.

So beautiful

Thanks Rajat. It's on our usual route back to the UK.

Beautiful.   

Excellent capture

Thanks. It's a much-photographed structure. Usually by people awaiting the ferry

Lots going on in the shot mate

Yes. The ferry port is to the right of shot, but on the opposite side of the estuary. About a ten minute drive.  The lighthouse is the focal point of many a holiday snap.

So much to capture in one image - try doing a wide angle pano on your next visit from further out - that would look amazing

The empty ferry dock - before arrival. Plenty of time for a drone flight

I love ports - I intend to head down to dover later in the year and capture the famous white cliffs

Rather more interesting than endless shots of fields and trees   Although they do have their charm.

Pano shots are something for me to try yet.  I need the stitching software too.

Yes, I love landscape photography and especially sunsets but always cool to blend things out with different locations.

Straight down (-90) shots look cool over seashores too

Endless possibilities. It's brightening up - I'd better get out and try a few

Thanks Woe. I'd planned that flight before leaving home, hoping it would be a clear morning. I was in luck

Yes, not my best work. But we had to catch the ferry,  so no time to repeat the flight.

Happens to all of us.
Do you shoot manually, or auto mode?
