Default Outcrop

Flat on my stomach and leaning over this rock face with my 200mm lens just to capture the moss growing on this outcrop with a torrent of water flowing past.

Lets check the camera bag, extra memory card, battery and lens, emergency flares, compass and safety line. Glayva, you are the Ethan Hunt of DPS

Your mission Glayva, should you accept it, is to lean over a cliff where even then sheep won't go, to take a picture of moss, above a river of molton lava .

You never fail to impress and this is another excellent picture my friend, have a great weekend

Very nice image! I love the contrast of the sharpness and detail of the moss set against the abstract and wispy flow of the water.

Thanks Beach for your kind words. I'm having a rest today as I have a BIG shoot on tomorrow. You too have a great day, my friend.

very nice corner to corner capture, not sure that I could hold the camera still enough to capture that amount of detail with a slower shutter speed, but you're the man!
