No Camera's Were Flooded in the Making of these Pictures

But my feet got wet...

Backstory:
My normal shooting partner, had his 5Dii soaked a few weeks back when we were out shooting in this same spot during the passing of Hurricane Bill, the camera was insured, and he got the pay off for it, and switched systems. In the meantime, I bought a K7, and then another shooting partner got his K20d soaked two weekends later. So now on my "normal" forum, there has been a lot of joking about us three shooting on the shoreline, and having camera's ruined. So these are the second landscape set out of the K7, and I had to rub it into them a bit.

Some really identical compositions here, I apologize for that, but I was mostly just working the wave action this morning, and the timing of them. These are LR mostly, with a vibrance layer CS4, to bring out sky color a bit more. I actually strayed away from longer (15-30) seconds this morning, and stayed more with 1-3 sec exposures.

Thanks Ron. BTW, if anyone is wondering, K7, SMC-DA* 16-50 f/2.8, 3 stop grad. All ISO 100, 16mm, mixture of 1-3 second exposures. The Hurricane Bill one is my last landscape set from the K10D.

I can hear the waves come in and recede, then rush in again! I Like # 9. Colors and contrast seem to be the most vivid in that shot.

That's quite the accomplishment when you come back from shooting photos at the end of the day and you know your camera should still good for at least one more outing.

Anyway, these are some really nice shots!
