Cold, Wet & Happy | Long Exposure Seascapes in a Storm

Описание: A day of battling the elements at Ayrmer Cove in South Devon. Recovering from a gout flare-up, I swapped Dartmoor for the coast — only to find powerful winds, sudden showers, and a rogue wave that left me soaked.

Armed with the Fujifilm GFX100S II and K&F Concept filters, I embraced the storm to capture long exposure seascapes. Exposure times between 30 seconds and 2 minutes transformed the crashing waves into ethereal, mist-like images.

Despite being cold, wet, and battered by the weather, I was happy — because sometimes the toughest conditions create the most rewarding photographs.
