Sunset Ripples…
by Rodney Campbell on Sep.13, 2015, under Life, Photography
Towards the end of our cruise on lake argyle as the boat is heading back towards the our starting point the sun is setting over the hills where we’re heading.
NIKON D750 + 28.0-300.0 mm f/3.5-5.6 @ 90 mm, 1/100 sec at f/6.3, ISO 560

Moonscaping
NIKON D750 + 28.0-300.0 mm f/3.5-5.6 @ 28 mm, 1/30 sec at f/6.3, ISO 640
Argyle Wash
NIKON D750 + 28.0-300.0 mm f/3.5-5.6 @ 58 mm, 1/60 sec at f/6.3, ISO 720
The ripples behind the craft were mesmerising and timed to perfection to allow the colours of the setting sun and early twilight to reflect off the surface.
Turning towards where the sun has just set the lovely light fills the sky and reflects off the ripples of the waters surface.
Lake Folds
NIKON D750 + 28.0-300.0 mm f/3.5-5.6 @ 62 mm, 1/60 sec at f/6.3, ISO 1100
With the vessel picking up speed I move to the back of the boat to shoot these fabulous reflections off the wake.
They plan this well to create a huge wake and then turn the craft and drift just as the light perfectly skips across the endless moving ripples to create these mesmerising sinuous curves.
Rolling Hills
NIKON D750 + 28.0-300.0 mm f/3.5-5.6 @ 58 mm, 1/60 sec at f/6.3, ISO 4500
We are in heaven and with such a massive untouched body of water it lasts for minutes – time to fill up the memory card with amazing images 🙂
Argyle Tiger
NIKON D750 + 28.0-300.0 mm f/3.5-5.6 @ 112 mm, 1/125 sec at f/6.3, ISO 1250
The end of a perfect afternoon out, my daughter and I really enjoyed this… A sunset cruise on the lake on the “Kimberley Durack” with Lake Argyle Tours is a must do!.
