Spring Tide


 
BetterPhoto.com All Time Best Photo Contest Editor's Pick BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest SECOND PLACE Winner   Spring Tide
Spring Tide
Exposed sea grass and kelp at Lone Ranch Beach on the southern Oregon coast during a -2.2 low tide. The color of the reflective grass in the morning sun through a polarizer was crazy green. A polarizer/small aperture/ND filter combo allowed a shutter speed that allowed some blur in the motion of the waves. Offshore fog created an interesting vignette.

Update: This photo is one selected to run in an article about my photography in the current (August 2008) issue of Outdoor Photography Magazine.

  This is just stunning, I love the colors, brilliant use of the polarizer and perfect for a soft water effect photo.
