Storm Clouds approaching farmland, near Borgsum on North Sea Föhr August 2017 #believeinfilm I was looking at the scene through a break in the hedges over a harvested cornfield to the farm house up on the hill. Early morning light with a rainstorm approaching. I chose my longest lens the Fujinon NW 5.6/150 which has fantastic resolution with Fp4+. The scan clearly shows the two ribbons at the top of the flag post between the two buildings on the horizon. I used a bit of front rise for more emphasis on the sky and dramatic clouds and some front tilt to get focus all the way across the foreground. I put the brighter parts of the clouds into VI which the farmhouse in III-IV. A yellow filter (BW1) at f=22 1/2 seconds was used to enhance contrast in the clouds.

Salt Marshes near Borgsum on North Sea Island Föhr #believeinfilm His picture was challenged by the lighting situation (diffuse, partly cloudy with the need to point my camera in the direction of the sun) and lots of wind which caused my camera backpack which I hang below the tripod to swing! I recall putting the reflections in the little s-shaped water (Priel) and from the Sea on the horizon into VII and at the dark forest at the edge into III .

Sunflowers greeting. North Sea Island Föhr on the last day of our stay before the rainstorm came down on us #believeinfilm For this image I had to go through quite some contortions: I was shooting the field at an angle so to get the front of the flowers in proper focus I had to “dance the Scheimpflug” on them, using a front swing to get the film pane meeting the focus. Vignetting is evident but intentional to emphasize the group of sunflowers in the middle. More or less shooting in the direction of the sun but the upcoming rainstorm diffused the light.
