Cauldron

Hi all

 

This was taken in a force 8-9 gale. It was a one second exposure of

the water hitting the front railings and running up the concrete.

 

Cheers

"Only" 1 second?!? Wow... This is stunning, with the impression to be aspired!

I like the feel that this image evokes...the B&W tones really make this picture. Great technique, you can really feel the power of the water.

Looks like a difficult shot to capture.

 

Very dramatic in Black and White.

 

Andy...

wonderful shot, well done

Thanks for your comments.

 

Yes just a 1 second exposure, I wanted to keep the roughness of the water combined with the movement of the foreground water, as the wave hit the bottom railings and was half way up the concrete, I pressed the shutter.

 

I was using ISO 640 and there is a bit of noise, but I think this again adds more to the image.

 

Cheers again

This is by far the most dynamic seaside shot I have seen in quite some time. Very symphonic, a wonderful slide into the crashing crescendo of the boiling waves. What a shot! You get 3/3 though because a jealous vote is still a genuine vote.

 

"The owner of this photo has rated 1 of your photos with a 7 during the last fourteen days; and you aren't allowed to reciprocate so soon." I cant rate the shot directly, how typical. Amazing isnt it, I can use the "Rate Photos" function and anonomously rate your image (but I cant find it), but if I want to digitally shake your hand and say well done with a 7/7 its against the rules..... for the love of god.

wow

Powerful image.

Thanks for all of your comments

 

Cheers Dave, Your comments are worth an 8/8 in my book.

 

Mike

incredible shot! Bravo!
