Sounds like an oxymoron...and yet, makes sense as we look at the image. Beautiful work, Lester. #1246890

Hi Michelle,
I didn't know how to put a description to this image where the waves seemed so smooth but quite furious enough especially when it was hitting the rocks that produced quite a thunderous roar hence the seemingly contradictory terms. Thanks and best regards!

Randy,

Yes, this had quite a slow shutter at 0.80 sec with f18 opening. Used a CP + ND4 to achieve this under bright sunlight. Thanks.

Carol, Tess & Linda,

Thanks for all your comments. Kind regards!
