La Jolla Cove footprints

La Jolla Cove footprints
f16, 90 second exposure, Fujichrome Velvia 100 slide film. Taken after sunset at the cove in La Jolla, CA on August 12, 2007. The surf gets the smooth look from the long exposure.

  Gary,
This is so cool!
I love the colors, the surf looks like the sky almost, it's deceiving. I like how the footprints carry us through the image.
The image reads like a book- it has a beginning, middle and end. Great image.

  A really great shot, Gary! I have tried this sort of thing on the beach with digital cameras, but I never seem to get the effect I am looking for.

  Wow Gary you are getting some magnificant captures with Velvla and timed capture to boot. Love the soft surf, hues and presentation (and no DD manipulation)
I used to shoot Canon film cameras and Nikonus V. Good luck with you new (used of course) camera. Enjoy your hikes as much as John and I.

  Stunning capture, Gary. Makes a person want to be there following the footprints. My son is a Navy career with 2 years before his 20, stationed in Hawaii (a photographer's dream place).

  I like how the sea flows into the land, instead of there being a big distinction between the two.
Fantastic!
