The one that got away!
31st July 2010
I decided to experiment some more with the "big stopper" ( a ten stop neutral Density Filter) so I went down to the banks of the Owenwee river just outside Westport. When I got to my favourite spot I found Aden Kelly and his two little girls fishing. While I was still setting up the camera Aiden hooked a Salmon and was clambering over the rocks playing the fish. The fish however managed to escape ! Aiden said he didnot mind as it was only a small one. Now this surprised me a little because I thought it was only the REALLY BIG ONES that got away! Aiden explained to me afterwards that there is a catch and return policy on that stretch of river anyway.
Aiden and his two little helpers!
No filter 40th second
"Big stopper used, exposure was for one whole minute!

By omnishots: The first three are lovely but the fourth one is too much for me. But then it's all a matter of taste isn't it! Don't think I want a big stopper!!
