The Feel Of The Ocean, a photo from Oregon, West

Photographer's Note

The Oregon Coast sometimes has rough seas and larger than normnal waves. Here along the coast rocks stand and take the daily beating of the waves. A cold day ... winds blowing ... but very refreshing.

Hello David,
in my opinion, it's very difficult to photograph "water in motion": the moment you aim and choose a composition (especially when waves are included), the whole scene changes... and when you press the shutter button, the picture shows absolutely a different view!
But this also has a positive aspect: an element of unpredictability :)
I like this composition very much. The waves are like crazy: even though they are "static" in this digital image, they look so powerful and dynamic!
Besides, due to the lighting conditions, the colour of the water is amazingly different - on the right, on the left, at the top...
Very interesting!

well... to sum it up, I want to say that in the year 2012 I'd love to see new photos of yours in TE gallery! They are always very interesting and each tells us a little story :)

Wish you Merry Christmas - and Happy New Year!
good luck to you!
kind regards,
Elena

Hi David, I cant believe you have had such a small response.. You can feel the wave about to break, the wind blowing it back creating a splash on the crest.. this is dynamic. a great image well done Rich
