Living in Hawaii is an unfair advantage for a photographer :-)

Just kidding; well done!

This was a typical grey (and very wet) London day too. Usually night shots are OK in this kind of weather. I also made some motion blur shots of buses and taxis.

Stefano, Kodak Gold is a very good and inexpensive film. The drawback is the fact that you need a good print service to ge the result. Therefore I mostly use Fuji slide film, with Fuji Provia 100F being my favourite, because it's so versatile (it can easily be pushed to 400 ISO). If I want to save money for a photoshoot I often use Fuji Sensia 100, which comes in 5 packs at a very attractive price and is a very good film too.

Thanks for the compliments on the photo.

The exposure is spot on. The image is not very sharp, but that's probably the result of scanning.

Composition is nice too.

Try Fuji Provia 100F or Sensia 100 next time for better colour reproduction and sharpness. Don't forget to add approximately one stop to compensate for film sensitivity loss during long exposures (> 10 seconds).

A perfect and original capture!

(I was in London last weekend, but unfortunately it rained when visiting the Millenium bridge)

Dolphins are one of the most difficult subjects. They are very agile, impatient and always moving.

Be prepared to spend endless rolls of film to get a few good shot.

This is a good attempt!

Very nice composition, although the colours look a little artificial. Did you alter it in PS?

Would love to see the original as well.

Wow, you were at the right spot at the right time!

Well composed too.

Another one with legs for Marc...
