The lake was so calm that night so it all just popped

Totally makes up for missing a bucket list item 😁

The worst bit is that friends of mine did catch a glimpse from the same spot a few hours later 😔

Honestly one of my favorite photos. Thanks so much!

The Fremen call it the Shai-Houndlud

I didn’t 😮 do now

This is pretty awesome!

Interesting! I did shoot this in burst. Gonna jump into lightroom to see how many I took with this pose.

Thanks for the tip!

Eh we’re kind of attached to him now

I’m super happy with this one. So glad Bowie helped out.

I do a calendar for Christmas, I think this would make an awesome addition for 2025.

He even got the composition right. I was at the limit of my zoom at the other end of the pool, if I was closer I would have probably made the image too tight.

Honestly it’s just hard for me to think about exposures and camera settings when doing Bowie photos, I tend to be pretty reactive.

Oh heck. I usually have to shoot around 1/800th of a second to avoid a blurry dog. Indoor I’ll go as low as 1/160th because Bowie is better at posing.

To even out water I’d need to shoot a 1 second exposure at least 😄(I’ve tried these in the past) it’s not happening 😁

Though… I do wonder if a 1/160th would be enough to even out the water a little 🤔🤔🤔 because you’re right it’s pretty jittery

There’s a stardog waiting in the sky He’d like to come and meet us But he thinks he’d blow our minds

I would love to have a vinyl album cover with Bowie on it!

We don’t have kids so we make sure we have one happy spoiled longboye

Thanks! We really did have just a couple of minutes before the sun dropped below the horizon. My partner, Bowie, and I sprinted to the beach to get the shot :)

From there I leave it to the autofocus and burst mode and hope I have one keeper.

We do a Bowie calendar for friends and family (it’s a great motivation to take photos). We were ready to send it to the printers, but last night we dropped this photo in for May.

So yeah, it’ll be on about 35 walls 😃

Not sure which would be scarier!

Bowie can pull off any outfit

Very cool. I was proud of myself for pointing a camera at the Milky Way for 15 seconds. This is a whole other level. 👍
