How to get Sharp Photos with a Telephoto Lens

Getting sharp photos with a telephoto lens can be easier than you think, but it's important to use the right technique and settings which I talk about during this incredible coming storm.

Damn Nigel, that was incredible! I loved the shot at 3:21 with the ghostly shapes the spray created. Thanks for letting me ramble a bit in your video! 😂

Nigel: "It doesn't get better than this!!!"
Mads: "Hold my beer...!"

Wow! It REALLY DOESN’T get better than this! Dramatic. Inspirational. Powerful.
You can’t beat a trip to the coast! Thank you, Nigel. I’m watching again and again. Mentally and visually absorbing the ozone!

I got goosebumps from watching this video! Such power in those weaves! The photos are amazing 🙌🏻

Wow, you can't beat a good storm. makes such magnificent photos. In regard to composition, due my sight defect I only see the world in 2D not 3D. I have puzzeled long and hard if that makes a difference to composition. I see what you print not what you will see on location.
I recently watched your interview with Rick on the making of the film from Scotland. Made me realise that I have followed you from your very you Tube video. Where has time gone. Thank you for another inspirational video.

Love ❤your work and your jacket buddy ❤

It is wonderful to see your joy in photography. Most of my shooting has been aperture priority. I think this is the first time I have seen anyone use shutter priority. Thank you for explaining what you were doing and why. I’ll have to give that a try.

Amazing location Nigel... beautiful shots... great to see you back at it and enjoying life.

So many of my usual youtube photographers have been suffering from poor lighting conditions your good fortune was a nice contrast. Your video was so much fun to watch, your excitement was infectious; caught myself grinning as you and Michael were so thrilled to be there. It's about time someone got some good light for a change!

Amazing waves plus I love the droplets in the pictures.
And a very good collaboration vidéo.
Thanks a lot.
