Castillo de San Marcos, a photo from Florida, South

Photographer's Note

The Castillo de San Marcos is a Spanish built fort located in the city of St. Augustine, Florida.
The city of St. Augustine was founded by the Spanish in 1565. Over the next one hundred years, the city was defended by nine wooden forts. Following the 1668 attack of the English pirate Robert Searle, it was decided by the Queen Regent of Spain, Mariana, that a masonry fortification be constructed to protect the city. In October 1672 construction began on the fort that would become the Castillo de San Marcos.

Hello Henryk,

This a is a superb image. You have been able to manage the exposure masterfully, considering it is a full 30-second exposure. The composition, perspective and resolution are first rate. The succinct by informative note is much appreciated.

Warm regards from Virginia,

Bulent

Hello Henryk,
Very nice result with the slow shutter & filter. Great lighting & luminosity. Another reason I should get ND filters for myself to try for a shot like this.

Best Regards,
Latiff.

Hello Henryk,

It seem like a beautiful place to visit. The castle long beachfront is well captured from this angle. The sky seem dramatic due to its colours and texture. A beautiful composition with soft lines and interesting use of light. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Henryk, great colours and light - I especially like the houses in the background, marking the horizon. Regards, Johannes
