Day 116

Today the weather's drizzly with no wind -- ideal conditions for crop dusting. I wanted to get a crisp shot of the plane, so I needed a fast shutter speed, but the light was so low, I had to crank the ISO up to 800. This means the image is grainier than I'd like. I know selective colour is cheesy, but I felt that this shot, like the one of the cow the other day, would work better with it. As it turns out, in the web version of the image the plane's so small, you can hardly see it's in colour anyway!

  2. This is great - as you say, a little grainy but it still works. I like the horizontals and the interest in the landscape below. I can just see the red in the plane!

  3. Very cool. I attempted a shot like this the other day. Need to bring my longer lens next time.
