Testing the water by orangecrush

Testing the water

It has been so hectic around here lately so I decided to scoop my girls up and take them to the beach to watch the sunset and unwind a little! It worked! The sky was so gorgeous and the girls had a lot of fun getting there clothes wet in the waves! This is a shot of my oldest daughter testing the water!
Thank you all so much for taking the time to visit my project! I am very thankful for all of you!
Lovely!

Hi Jerry! We've been paired up for Get-Pushed-8, : ) Yippee!
I've gone through both your albums and I'm quite a fan of your work! There was a couple of things I didn't see much, if any of....one being sports photos! So, for this weeks challenge, I would like to challenge you to action sports photos. The sport(s) is at your discretion ...I would just like to ask to see action in your shots : )
Now the big question...are you up for the challenge?, smiles
I'm hoping you accept as I'm anxious to see what you come up with!
September 9th, 2012  
Love the light in this and the clouds reflected in the shallow water.
September 9th, 2012  
@tctime Oh wow! Your right! I don't think I have any sports shots! Can I take a pic of the TV? ;o) I'm excited to have you as a partner this week, TC, and your challenge! Now I'm off to your project! :)
September 9th, 2012

I really love your processing technique Jerry, and am wondering if you HDR? Your colors are always so rich and vibrant.

This is such a wonderful capture. I love the reflections of the sky in the water, and there's something about a solitary figure that just gets me every time. Another fav for me!
