The January Photo Struggle

by Jamie | Jan 29, 2021 | Dog Walking Blog | 0 comments

Getting good action shots of dogs in January is tough. To freeze the action, you need a fast shutter speed—around 1/1000th of a second—but in dark, wet winter light, that means cranking up the ISO. And high ISO means grainy, rubbish image quality.

Basically, getting action shots in low light is hard.

Monday was quite nice, and the sun was out—you can easily see which photos were taken that day. But on the other days, the camera had to earn its keep.

New boy Alfie the Shetland Sheepdog is with us to build up his confidence, and he's doing well. Jenny also joins the gang for a good runabout.

Photos were taken at Mar Hall, Erskine Beach, and Finlaystone Country Estate.
