Description


Another in my series of strong seas. This is Dwejra Arch, a very popular place for tourists but not when the sea is in this condition.
This was taken with a 2.5 sec exposure at F22 when the sun was setting in very cloudy weather. It was almost dark. We don't have any rivers here so my experiments with moving water has to be done with my friend the sea.
