These are insane Nessie!

Did you pan on the 3rd? Amazing effect

But how come the trees are not blurred in 5th?

We need explanation!

The trees in the background in no 5 are blurred with the panning, and the rider and the slightly closer trees frozen with the 2 OCF. You can see the trees melting into the blurred background as the light falls away from them as they get higher. Shutter speed was 1/50th in no 5.

Been a pleasure to view this collection of shots, a lot of drama and atmosphere ,I believe you said you don't normally take this kind of shot but you do have the eye to capture the moment very well.

Looking at the shots Lloyd has posted over time has shown him develop from a very good photographer to someone really exceptional. Something seems to have happened in terms of his access to subject matter as well and the results are pretty spectacular.

Fantastic photos Lloyd. Atmospheric and so full of detail. Loving your recent stuff.

Thank you guys, I'm really surprised by all the positive feedback - was worried you'd be getting bored of them all now
I think as Henry mentioned my recent access to subject matter out of the ordinary has certainly helped me progress as a photographer. Just need more of the work and excitement now!

Really quick video from footage captured on Drift Ghost HD cameras: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbYczVLzxCc

Ps Nessie those fisheye shots are so cool!

Quality and well seen variety. If people become bored by that then they are bored by photography.

Add in the interesting opportunities and locations - how can any of your work be boring to look at?

After my drive down the Pacific Coast yesterday, it was another day at Yosemite today...

I'm guessing someone on here has already done better, but I was very pleased to be sober enough to drive up to London on Saturday night while this was still on. I wish I'd spent a bit longer trying to get better pictures and actually used the tripod but hopefully these are still worth sharing:

I decided to dust off the 550D and have a play again.

A few from a session down at at 'The Wedge' surf / bodyboard spot in Newport Beach, CA.













Certainly good fun, although I think a little more practice is in order! And an excuse maybe for a new lens.

^^^ Cool shots! I was there a long time ago in a different lifetime, fab spot

Wow.
Just wow.

I've been wanting to take this picture for a while now, but never had the right lens to do so. Finally did it tonight and it looks pretty much as it should (compared to what was in my head at least). I'm sure it can be improved but I'm pretty happy with it.

Anyway, it's my watch:

And I took this next one quickly to see how it'd come out. Not too bad as it happens.

Apologies for the title of this photo:

I guess I'm just critical of my own work. Thanks

This is fairly epic Lloyd, could you talk us through the setup?

Your top photo is my favorite view of London from Waterloo bridge, great shot by the way
