Beach Flow I

I was somewhat captivated by the ever-changing scene before me, as gentle waves rolled across the sand, changing the landscape with every sweep. I could have stayed there for hours!

great capture
Duncan Waldron replied

Thanks Zaldy – it took me back to the sort of thrill I used to get from photography, and have been missing.
dusty

Fantastic capture.
Duncan Waldron replied

Thanks Larry, glad you like it – I got a toasted head under a hot sun, to get these (more to come).
TLeeHoney

absolutely dynamic image – can see why you could’ve stayed there for hours!
Duncan Waldron replied

Thanks TLH – dynamic is the word, it was constantly changing … more like action photography than landscape!
cameraman

great shapes nicely composed
Duncan Waldron replied

Thanks cameraman – composition was a real challenge with the waves changing the view every time; I was wishing I had one of those pistol grip tripod heads to ease the aiming!
Tom Vaughan

just spectacular image! amazing “feathers” dripping down, and very well composed.
Duncan Waldron replied

what an intimate and sensitive view of the meeting of sand and water…......... a sublime moment ! thank you for that!
chris Whitney

I like the interaction of the water and sand; very nice.
Duncan Waldron replied

Thanks Chris; interaction was certainly the word. A time-lapse series might have been interesting.

back to give props for this image… nature is wild and beautiful at the same time!
Duncan Waldron replied

Many thanks Zaldy. I suppose this was a bit wild in its own way – it was a gentle process but very unpredictable in what exactly was going to happen next. Nature’s a funky place!
