Out At Sea

Description

This was taken at Ruby Beach in Washington St. To get this vantage point I needed to set the tripod up in the ocean to get the feeling of being right there. This was shot f/22 at 0.5 Sec. to get that silky effect of the water. I made the image a little darker to create a moodier image

Secondly,I have a question to ask if your tripod had ever been shaken to effect the picture fuzzy because you say you set the tripod into the ocean #3544379
