Sunset amidst the crashing waves

eoren1

Hadn't been able to shoot in 2 weeks but managed to get out at 3pm to drive around town. Got to a favorite spot by 4 (just in time for sunset :huh) and shot a few long exposures with my 10-stop ND. This was the favorite of the bunch. The sun set during this 150 sec exposure and colored the background in a brilliant red-orange glow.

Nice catch! The 10-stop ND always presents a few surprises. Love the soft water.

Ha Ha...that remark made me want to comment.

Really, the photo is wonderful. The water looks like a sea of mist. The foreground is framed nicely and I like the inclusion of the distant tower.

There is a lot to see in this photo, and the more I look at it the better I like it--makes me feel as if I were there. Some landscape photos are so perfect and strikingly beautiful that they seem like post cards--not a bad thing at all. But this photo seems like a real place with lots of character at a beautiful time of day with that incredible water. Very memorable. Best, Pam

Thanks Pam for the incredibly kind (and eloquent) words!

Very cool shot, always fun to work with the 10 stop filter. Plus when your done you hop over to the Barnacle for a bite.

I actually showed this shot to the owner and he offered me drinks in exchange for a print

Nice colors. I really like the "mystic" feel of the water.
