Leeuwin II this evening against Rottnest Island and Nautical twilight |

Tonight's Moon |
Julia took the three little ones down to the beach whilst I set up my tripod, changed to the 70-200mm lens and attached the wired shutter release and set the D700 to mirror lockup before setting exposure.
After taking the shots of the Leeuwin I did the old photographer trick of looking at what was behind me and deciding to take a few shots of the moon.
I then returned to taking more shots of the Leeuwin when a Police car pulled up next to me and the friendly officer came over to have a chat.

Nice work., Glad you got down there and managed some lovely shots. Sounds like fun with the police. Did they think you were a terrorist looking to blow up the ship?
ReplyDeleteThanks Chris, I think the police were just doing the standard car park check. They were both nice people and the female officer got out of the car for the kids to put beach sand on her seat:)
ReplyDeleteCheers
Your kids are so caring, sharing like that. I'm sure they made her evening.
