Out & About in Durban and Umhlanga

The night last night was just too good to miss the chance to capture what I think are some pretty greats shots.

The evening was calm, the Sea was even better and the tide was really low which allowed me to walk maybe a little too far out to the the Whale Bone Pier shot. It's easy walking out with the light behind you but trying to navigate back with the tide was coming in was pretty scary. Never mind that I couldn't see anything clearly and I will be honest and say that I got a little spooked, the thought of slipping and get my foot trapped in between rocks was always in my mind. I think the shot was worth it though.

Beautiful Rox

I know this shot has been done many times but I decided to wait for the tide to be really low and get the shot I have been waiting for.

 I really think that this setting is so amazing and worth the wait, it deserves to be photographed.

#Umhlanga Rocks (Rox) what a place to live.

Umhlanga Sunrise

Nothing like waking up to this awesome town. 

 

Got to the beach at 05h00 to get some great shots sadly there was not enough cloud cover at that time but still an awesome morning. 

 

Small edit and a play on colours and I think I am done for Photographing this pier now. It has been shot so many times, need another subject.

Durban and Umhlanga NightScape

I have never shot any night photography, this was my first attempt with my awesome Canon 6D.

There are so many talented Photographers like Andrew Harvard and his amazing vision for landscape Photography and his incredible post production skills.

I thought that tonight would be the night to give it a try, considering I was exhausted.....I decided to hit the city at 21h15 and got back around 23h55....Well I had an amazing time putting to practice what I have read and also tried my hand at some post production. In my opinion, the images came out the way I wanted them or should I say, 'As much as I know how to clean them up in post process.'

The first few images were taken at Ushaka with the rear end of the beached Boat and the obvious Moyo pier, I know that this has been shot many times but that was everyone else.

The images that follow are all in my hometown, Umhlanga and 'Yes' there are also images that have been shot many times but this was my turn.

Oh Yeah, the wind was howling by the way, hence the movement on the Palms.

Hope you enjoy and feel free to comment.
