Timing and water movement can make the difference between a ok shot and a shot that is dynamic and has depth and form.
Seascape imagery involves quite a bit of waiting to get the right sized wave in the right position – this image was the first of several using the seaweed as a nice little prop, however I was not ready or setup for it, i merely plonked the tripod down knowing full well a nicely positioned wave was coming and did not have time to adjust the graduated filter or anything else for that matter. hence the overly dark headland and water, but on a positive note, i got the horizon bang on 🙂
Inspired by +Jay Patel and his recent bubbles image, thanks for the inspiration mate.
Joined on the morning by the fong man and rudy Rod. (+Cameron Fong & +Rodney Campbell ) Thanks for the company.

Well capture Gerard!
Looks pretty good Gerry – we got that nice crack in the clouds – waves were as you say a little unpredictable.
I saw you down the beach composing over this weed and was considering stealing it myself 🙂 I think you've done it justice.
Indeed photography can involve a bit of stress sometimes 😉
Great result Gerard!
