Steven Cooke, Milford Sound Vista (LANDSCAPE 2025)

This is a panorama of Milford Sound Bay and a set of exposures at 15s using an ND filter and then stitched together in post. All while knee deep in icy water and while being attacked by sandflies! I was drawn to use the log and create a leading line from it and then onwards throughout the capture to the mountains, clouds and the horizon. The water was crystal clear and on this morning and had a lovely green gentle hue through it .
