Another shot taken from my recent trip in the beautiful Faroe Islands. One thing that one must learn when visiting such a place, is to be able to adapt quickly to the ever changing weather conditions. There is a saying that both icelandic and Faroese people have adopted and it goes like this….” If you don’t like the weather, wait 15 minutes and it will change” having visited both countries I can honest say that there is definite truth to that saying. Here I had to adapt to windy and rainy conditions in order to capture this shot. Constantly having to wipe raindrops from my lens and large filters while making sure my light Gitzo tripod wouldn’t tip over because of the strong winds made capturing this shot very challenging. I have several shot that I had to get rid of because of that but very happy to have managed to capture this one.

Tech Spec: Canon 5D MK II, Nikon 14-24 F2.8, F18, 3sec, LEE SW150 Filter Holder, 0.9 (3 Stop) Soft ND Grad, Cavision 6×6 Linear Glass Polarizer and a lot of patience.

Nice image Patrick….I thought it interesting that you used a Cavision 6×6 Linear Glass Polarizer. I have used it for large format but not digital, maybe because of the bubble in front of your Nikon wide angle. My digital is also the 5D MK II and between you and Adamus I am leaning to get that 14-24, looks like it has a huge sweet spot.
Hi Fred, You will love it..and yes that is why I used the Cavision 6×6 , only polarizer that I found that would work with the 14-24
I really like this beautiful picture. It feels like I am there!
Thank you very much Cindy

A beautiful picture! I really like your photographing
I like to photograph the nature and architecture, but I’m not half as good as you are. I hope that one day I will be so great like you
you are one of the photographers that inspire me! Keep up the good work.
Thank you Lene, I am sure you will attain your goal in no time..Just keep working hard at it..If you are passionate, it will happen
Awesome image & I really like the way it’s framed on your page. I’m impressed not only by your photography but by how beautiful your site is. Really wish I could afford that 14-24; it’s been on my wish list for quite some time.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing your amazing photos with us… A technical question: why have u used a Linear Polarizer instead of a circular one?
Pretty simple, Because I couldn’t find a circular polarizer that would fit on the Nikon 14-24 Lens
Superb shot, the Faroe Islands looks like a wonderfull place for photography, thanks for sharing Patrick!
