I always try to get mirrored photos, and I'm never really happy with them. This one happened totally unplanned. I've got the best dog ❤️

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

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