During the ‘Big Freeze’ i decided i’d climb up the top of Bray Head again to try and capture the surrounding views. Think I might have to venture up the Sugarloaf one day.

Photos from a walk to the top of Bray Head

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Views from Bray Head, Bray Co. Wicklow Was a beautiful day last Saturday so i decided to wander to the top of Bray Head. Had been a while since I was up there and I have never taken any pics. So, off I went. When I got up there I was kind of kicking myself I didn’t bring my tri-pod, the autumn light wasn’t the best and i shot most of these with a shutter speed of about 100-150, barely enough to counter hand shake. Next time I’ll bring the tri-pod! :-)

You may notice that, unusually for me, I ended up processing a couple of these in colour. I wanted to get that high contrast  look to the shots and even though I didn’t use a UV filter I managed to get the desired effect in trusty photoshop.

I used the Sigma 10-17mm lens for most of the shots, a lens I’m delighted with and use regularly now. Still feel the need for more resolution and/or clarity. Tripod would have helped tho! I have added the images to the landscape section here.

Updated Photography section…

As the photo section was getting rather busy I decided to update it and add sub-sections, They include Landscape, Places, People and Things. Hope you find it useful!
