Afternoon Low Tide

This scene was taken along the shores of the Pacific at 2 o'clock in the afternoon during an

afternoon low tide revealing the stones gathered on the beach. Intense lighting from the sun

was subdued by using an infrared filter + polarizer to bring out effect on the water. Exposure

was 30secs @ f9 ISO160 using 18-55mm@18mm.

Lovely image. The dualism between the vacant sky on top and the stones beneath that you aptly compose into a texture worked very well in b/w. compliments -koushik

This is brilliant, I love the composition. The reflection of the sun between the rocks really draws your eye into the image. The use of the fillters has given a good image even more impact

Brilliant final result, Lester. You mastered the difficult light very well. Great scene, great dof and tonality choice. Compliments - El

Really exceptional, I like when in photography, sharing experiences, always enriched this beautiful hobby. Congratulations. Best wishes. Vicente.

Very beautiful scene... The angle and the depht is great... The black and white treatment is wonderful... Good work...

 

Best Regards, Jill

The view is almost hypnotic, gazing out over the stones and sea to somewhere out there. Excellent composition.
