I wanted to see if I could get that wispy dawn long exposure of breaking waves effect in the middle of a searing hot day.
ISO50 F22 1.6sec & a variable ND filter at about 80%
Well that was fun.

LOVE this!

And the answer is ... yes, yes you can Nice job. Great thing to know ... I see many possibilities in the future. There are a couple of corn-processing plants in my area and they belch out a lot of steam. It's clean steam though! I have played with an ND900 for sunny times that the steam makes interesting patterns. Works well for that too. I look forward to seeing some wonderful & fun pics.

Very cool shot. Water looks very inviting.

[Dawn Reilly]

Gorgeous! been wanting to try my new filter but still having trouble getting access to the beach after the storm :(

[Frank Hymus]

Great water in and around the rocks.

[Leonie Mogridge]

This has turned out fantastic. I must get one of those. I've tried stacking my 2,4 and 8 filters, but it seems to distort the colour. Variable looks like the way to go.

Well for a novice such as myself, I only dream of capturing shots such as these.. This is soothing, mystical, inviting.. very pretty!!

[Hillary Torrey]

This is stunning! The blues, the water around the rocks and the dry vs wet rocks in the front are great. Well done!!!

[Murray]

Really nice shot David. I am jealous of your ISO 50 capability. :)

Love how you composed this with the forground as the point of interest. It leads my eye right in and creates such depth in the shot. Long exposure - you nailed it.
