    It looks cold and rough! Good use of slow shutter speed with a nice flow on the sea. Pleased to hear that it also gave you some exercise! lol ;-))

  • David Hibberd replied

    Thank you David. It does look that way but in reallity it was warm and rough.

    Excellent Davo, colour, mood and comp. are fantastic… haha did you take a change of underwear?

  • David Hibberd replied

    No change needed fortunately. But I did get a bit of a heart start.
    Thanks Steve

    Really like the composition layers of the beach pebbles, water, rock and the subtle colour of the setting sky. Beautifully time exposed as well. Top shot David.

  • David Hibberd replied

    Thank you very much Barry, appreciated mate.

    Davo, what an awesome shot! There is so much to really just take in..The sensational soft color of the sky and sea, the pebbles bright like some colorful mosaic paving, and that wet,shiny,dark monolithic edge at the upper right corner, with those subtle fiery highlights. Mate- loving this!! ( I would have loved to see you running back as they wave hurried you on..) Actually, you have shown that wave just there lurching beyond the opening of the rocks.

  • David Hibberd replied

    Yes your right! As soon as I pulled this one up on my screen I saw it and had a quiet little chuckle. I must have looked like a right wanker. Oh well, thank you for that beautiful comment.

  • David Hibberd replied

    Thanks Richard! When I was shooting I wondered how they would look. I am well pleased with the result.

    wow, I love the mist like water coming in from the distance its brilliant. You feel the cold here almost from a magical time of dragons and wizards. The multi coloured gravel helps break up the drap cold look.

  • David Hibberd replied

    Thank you Thomas. It does have a real cold feel to it for sure, but it was quite warm. Cheers!

    Gosh, I truly want to investigate further. I would be there running back and forth with those waves, I think. I imagine searching through those pepples for bubbling signs of life of little critters below. Is there an undertow? Or you just didn’t want to get your camera gear wet? :D

  • David Hibberd replied

    I don’t know about the under tow. I was mostly concerned about my gear. I have long wireing on my remote and it wound up under the water but fortunately survived. Many thanks.

    Beautiful capture Davo, it almost has a surreal mystical feel about it – glad you didn’t get washed out to sea lol :))))

  • David Hibberd replied

    Ha! Not as glad as I am. Thanks Trish I think it has a mystical feel as well

    Wow Davo – which beach was this? Gorgeous colours, and the long exposure is perfect.

  • David Hibberd replied

    Thanks Trish. I cant tell you name as my memory is crap. But it was half way over the bluff between the two sand beaches and down on the rocky area. There were a few people fishing down there every time I walked the bluff. I hope that helps.
