Thanks

The reason I ask, is I have ruined many a snow shot by standing in the pristine snow and wondered how you managed to avoid the same fate. Martin

Thanks Martin!

I was lucky. Next dune over was a happy couple who stripped off all their clothes and playfully frolicked in the sand; also taking photos

Back and started developing from my yearly trip to the cabin in Kittelfjäll.

lassethomas, a beautiful photograph. Well done!

Drake's Beach, Point Reyes National Seashore

This one came out pretty much as I envisioned it, despite a howling wind that kept the dark cloth flapping across the ground glass and constantly changing light as the fog came and went by the moment.

Nice formal harmonics and tone, Bill.
Lassethomas, this last one is extraordinary.

Thanks Philip.
Here is another one taken a couple of hours earlier. All sheets between these two were ruined because I turned the ring on the shutter the wrong way in the darkness, not bothering to check. So instead of T I got 1/400. There are a million ways...
But I've got these two so I shouldn't complain.
And I really love the shooting stars far right on the first image.
