Excellent video Gareth. The mike is a lot better than the original. I never knew that you stood in so much water.

Yes, audio is much better now The gimbal I have is only a 2 way so when I walk it doesn't correct the up and down movement so that's my next thing to sort. I may not even bother as I found when trying the gimbal out and you wanted to put it down to video yourself setting up, you couldn't as there is no tripod mount or small feet for it to stand on.

Water! Yep! I found that if I don't get into the water then the water doesn't fill the lower of the frame and you end up with too much dead space of beach so unfortunately it's a must. Wife thinks I'm mad when I get back home and the first thing I do is shower the tripod, dry it and oil any metal parts on show!

Lovely pictures, nice colors!
I got stressed just watching the tide come in. We only have a few cm here in Corfu.

That last comment made me chuckle!

I've been in deeper before now as the tide on another beach came in around me and cut me off. Brown pants moment crossing that water back to safety!

Thanks

I've tweaked the bottom half of this as on reflection it looked a little dark:

It was dark, but by lightening it the eye is now drawn to the left hand bottom corner which ruins it IMHO I prefer the dark version which draws the eye to the lighthouse.

I prefer the dark version as well, for the reason Algi gives.
Best regards, John

Excellent shots Gareth,
Gorgeous light in the first one, and love those rocks in the 2nd shot.
I know what i like, If not always why.
