You could smell the smoke from the forest fires in the Annapolis Valley in Peggy's Cove.</p><div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stemked Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 <p>Love that effect Matt (image #2). I'm guessing you had to really stop down the lens to get it (unless you were using a star filter). You must have had to crank up the ISO to get the shot, right?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the legendary SMC DA 15/4 which makes these great starbursts without having to be extremely stopped down. This was at f/13, 1/50s ISO 800 and shot from my bike. Over the years I bet I have the most keepers from this lens. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duane_mills Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 <p>The starbursts on the original DA Limiteds are amazing. I went with the HD DA series for the way they handle flare but can not obtain a starburst remotely close to those Matt has been able to capture with original DA Limiteds. Dynamite shot Matt.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattB.Net Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 <p>Thanks Duane!<br> Amazingly the SMC 15 is also very good with little to no flare under seemingly any conditions!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
