I love the surreal feeling created by the use of long exposures in the landscape, as well as the compositional power they provide in terms of the ability to create leading lines out of nowhere. Here two images from the coasts of Brittany, in France, a destination I really love and I can't wait to go back to in early November!

When I see a photo that makes me want to close my eyes and imagine I am there in it, I know I am looking at an incredible photo. As said above, beautiful as always!

Beautiful! You’ve inspired me to try some long exposures of the ocean next time I’m out.

Lovely shots Vieri, the colours are fantastic and compositions are accomplished and extremely effective. Do you mind if I ask how you work out your exposure time?

Hey there, thanks so much, so happy to hear that my work inspired you to try something new!!

Thank you very much indeed Pete, so happy you liked them! About exposure time, it's out of experience really. I look at the clouds and the water, how fast they move or how rough a wave action there is, time it in my head and decide accordingly... hope this helps!

Best rgeards,
