Personal pool
Uploaded: August 16, 2010
This one was taken opposite the breakwall at Yamba, NSW. The weather wasn't the best when we were staying there but there was still a lot of people climbing the rocks & walking the breakwall. Lens aperture f/3.2, shutter speed 1/500sec, focal length 21mm, ISO 50.
