The Infinite

30 second exposure after sunset, wave action crashing on rocks.

Thanks for your comments.

The Oregon Coast. This is an image that I hoped would capture the mood and ambiance I felt wandering through along this empty beach alone at the end of a stormy day. The concept was a B&W image from the start. I used a long exposure about 10 minutes after sunset and had a little luck with the waves. Thanks for looking.

Can't really tell they're waves with that long of an exposure, but the effect is terrific. I like the fog look more than I would have actual waves - this is different, and I really like the atmosphere it creates. I'm surprised it didn't turn out too bright with that long an exposure, but you did a great job. I only wonder if there shouldn't be more contrast. I also like the way you lucked out witht he lines of the water matching the lines in the clouds - looks as though it's all vanishing on the horizon. Really nice.

Terrific mood; look like illuminated from the ground. Really original and beautiful - unlike all the other "long exposure sea and sunset" pictures. Well done ! Greetings from Switzerland Reto

Beautifully done. As said by someone else, I particularly like the fact that the waves have morphed into a "fog" with the long exposure along with the B+W treatment it makes a very dramatic and moody shot. Great composition and unusual but excellent choice of B+W.

wonderful picture!!! Great B&W, light and exposure... Dramatic!!!

Magnificent work!

My first action on seeing the thumbnail was to say out loud " Wow that's good"

 

It stands out from most of the the other images in the recent gallery. Having seen the name associated with it i am not surprised it is good.

 

Another absolutely stunning image Marc.

This photo really has a sense of movement. I feel that the horizon is really pulling me in. Bet this one looks great as a 13x19.

It looks better as a 24x36 ;-)

I am totally sure it does. Well done Marc! Very unique...and shows your versatility.

Marc, have you ever considering publishing a book of all your great photos of the Pac NW?

Remarkably impressive, and it was inspired of you to capture this scene in B&W : the movements and patterns in the water and sky are emphasized superbly.

Have you considered adjusting the image to remove the slight arc of the horizon or do you think this would detract from the flow of the image? Your choice of aperture and exposure length is pleasing.

so moody and beautiful!
