Winter Surf

Not been so active over the last couple of months due to work and other obligations. Sorry for that.

This shot is from our westcoast, taken on an overcast february afternoon. No idea to include the sky and horizon so I tested more abstract pictures this day.
Used my 70-200 VR II lens and used f/22 to achieve 0,3s shutter speed.

I like the framing and the motion. The soft light on the water has a ghostly appeal.

Ill ike the quality of light and abstract qualities here Christer. The underlying earthly colors are also enjoyable.

I love the patterns that the movement of the water makes.

Possibly one of the best water motion pictures ever. I like the way the soft colors let the water textures play the main role. Very nice.

I think this is beautiful! Wonderfully composed and your processing is just perfect. Very intimate, slightly abstract, and somewhat dramatic.
