A morning amongst the blue bells....

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Last day off before work, mostly spent behind the camera. (the rest of the day I will be too)

Read in full on my blog: http://www.danfreemanphotography.com/2011/05/a-morning-amongst-the-blue-bells/

Then some 'normal' photography

...and then a play whilst leaving the woods:

That is an awesome road for rigging a car, but it's too busy (like a car a minute, but that's still too much )

Thanks

Incredible as ever!

DEFO! I love playing with ND filters, and taking photos in ways we can't see things ourselves, like long exposures etc.

 

[Revels]

Those first 3 are f**king awesome!!

 

[dunganick]

1, 2 and 3 are stunning dude.

What ND filters do you use? I need to get one - all this good weather is causing me slow pan issues!

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Just a bog standard Hoya NDx8 (screw in)

And the Lee Big Stopper - epic filter! But rarer than rocking hors.........you get the idea.

 

[Geddes]

incredible shots like

 

[Tigger]

Awsome stuff as always - how the hell do you keep the D3 on the bike/car though? lol

 

[Scott™]

Brilliant mate.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Thanks

lol....with a bloody strong clamp/suction mount!

I love my D3, I've had no regrets spending so much on it......but it is a tad heavy. I'd love a D7000, but I can't justify the money for a secondary camera

 

[Jon.G]

Great shots.

How do you find the stereo btw, I've always liked them but never had chance to ride one. Defiantly look the they have great potential.

 

[Paul_G]

Quality bike shots - works really well.

Love it! I had a Scott Ransom before, it was a bit too heavy and hardcore for my needs. The stereo is just right, rugged as hell but better on longer distances.

 

[Leeshez]

Amazing.

Amazing shots as always! Is the clamp you using top secret or can you share some info on it?

I need one that cam support the weight of my 1D2 which is roughly the same weight as the D3

 

[Birdie*]

Stunning shots, and imaginartive too, the colours on the bike ones are lovely. Makes me want to get a decent camera and take up photography but I know I wouldn't get anything like that and quit after a few hours lol

 

[GeordieClioDriver]

I meant suction cups that support the weight! ... fail!

There's some pics of it on my blog.

I'm not secret about anything, I find it stupid when togs don't disclose their gear.

It's a Manfrotto 035 clamp, with a Manfrotto 484RC2 tripod head. Great clamp to have, attach it to something, mount the camera, click away!

I used a Manfrotto suction mount on the country lane photo, that's very strong too. Again, there's a pic of it on my blog. That was customised a bit too however.

 

[GeordieClioDriver]

I found the clamp for 17.50 but couldn't find the suction cups! I'm curious cause a friend of mine wants some
Photos done like this!
