Brigantine Cloudscapes & Landscapes

The cloudscapes were Great on our visit to the Brigantine Division of the Edwin B. Forsythe National Wildlife Refuge in Oceanville New Jersey. For the Landscapes I was using 3 different setups depending on what I was trying to show in my images. For really wide views of clouds & landscapes I used an Olympus OMD-1 with a 7.5mm Fisheye lens (180 Degree FOV) or my iPhone 11 Pr0 with the 1.5mm (Full Frame Equivalent Field of view ~13mm) or the 4.3mm lens (Full Frame Equivalent ~26mm). I corrected the Fisheye lens Distortion of the 7.5mm Fisheye lens on the Olympus in Photoshop using the Adaptive Wide Angle Filter that is accessed under the main “Filter” listing on the top menu Pull Downs. For the far out or distant landscapes with flocks of birds I was using a Tamron 150-600mm lens on a Canon R (Some with a 2X Teleconverter giving me a 300mm to 1200mm).

The Featured Image is a 3 image panorama taken with a 7.5mm Fisheye Lens on an Olympus OMD Camera.

    • Thanks so much Belinda! It was a Great Day to photograph the landscapes with all the clouds! Birds were surprisingly scarce though!

  1. I haven’t been to Brigantine in decades so it is very nice to get lost for a few moments in your images of it, Reed. So much open sky. Very nice, Reed.

    • Thanks so much Steve! It is the closest NWR to where we live, so we used to go there quite often. Sadly it does not seem to be maintained as well as it used to be. But still a nice NWR to visit.

    • Thanks Steve! It would be Great to be able to order up some nice clouds when needed! But there again it is wonderful when nature cooperates when you are photographing an area and you come upon some Great Cloud formations!
