Racing against the tide.......



A quick rush to get back before the water has gone for the day.




Taken with Mini 3 Pro.

Always handy when their motor is so loud they don't hear you.

With the Mini 3 it's rarely noticed anyone,    unlike my Mavic thats always noticed.

Really nice topdown DA.    I see a kid with the mom in the back of the boat on this shot.  The previous shot on chasing boats I only saw the two people in the boat.  Kid must have been hiding.

Thats a good point,    they should have life jackets indeed.

For the child at the very least.

All of them really,   it would be really easy to hit you head as you went over board.   Especially when speeding.

Nice shot.

I don't know how you make them, but I'm curious how this one would look with the motion blur effect you sometimes post.

Nice shot.

Many thanks Peter.

Many thanks Peter.

You're welcome!

Where you have one part sharp and the others have linear blur. A bit like when you pull the lens with the subject.

I dont usually do that with a top down shot though do I.

Not so far.
But I'm curious if it would enhance the feeling of speed here.

Yeah exactly.
That is speed.

I had to move the boat slightly.

I think this version works great

NOT BAD FOR A 2 MINUTE EDIT.   AND ITS SAVING ME FROM WRITING AN ARTISTS STATEMENT.  
Edit Ignore the case please.

Hahahahahahahahahaha.
Not easy to ignore these.
And def. not bad.

I think the 'usual' subjects you use can create some interesting tension because you associate this motion blur with movement and then the object is obviously not moving (like the pier you did some time ago).
But in this case, I think the added blur fits the subject well.

Thinking about it,  I think I did one like this with a sail boat once.

Like a top down?

I think that one was a 45 degree angle.

I don't remember it, but I think I did see it. That must have been some months ago. 6 or more I would say.

Last summer I would say.  


I just tweaked the colours in this and posted it to IG.

Yeah, very well possible.
I saw it

I wish I could recall what I called it.   The post title.

Did it feature one of these catamaran like boats?

Yes it was.    But small.

I have some faint memory of it, but.... Not the title.
