This is Sam, I met him last night when I stopped by Shirley’s Bay on the bike to see if anyone was fishing, and if they were were they catching any fish.
Nobody was but Sam was out with his camera looking for shots of the clouds, the sunset, and a family of geese, and we ended up passing some time talking about life and photography. It was a bit dark for my little pocket camera and the image came out a bit noisy but I’ve discovered that if that sort of image has the right colours, is tonemapped, and quality is adjusted down (oddly enough), it takes on sort of a velvet looking texture that isn’t half bad.
