Nice shots 😀

I bet you wish you had the more interesting various shades of brown birds we have rather than having to cope with all of those colours 😂

Hi Howard

Long time no see/ speak.

I fear to tread on the ground that is filter rights an wrongs, however, whilst I have not had much on the water photo experience what I have learned is that if you are close enough to the water while whale watching (or anything else) then I would use a UV filter (as mentioned above) as the salt water deposits on your lens can cause scratching when being cleaned.

Also, if you are in with a shout of even light spray it may be best to buy a camera lens cover as salt water leaves deposits that are worse than sand for cleaning off your kit.

I went on one of the dolphin spotting boats out of New Quay, Ceredigion and my UV filter needed to be washed afterwards, a bit of a pain but better than having to clean the front element if the lens.

My camera body also showed signs of salt water and I thought I had kept it reasonably well shielded.

A few quid plastic cover may be useful to you 😀

Have a great time in Oz Howard.

Regards



Stu

I really like these, the subjects, the processing and the captions also 😀 (it's my kind of thing)

It's a shame that photos don't include the V8 sound ☺️
