Golden Splash
Uploaded: February 08, 2011 17:27:26
This is the Pfeiffer Arch at Pfeiffer Beach State Park in Big Sur, California. As the waves surge through the opening, they would make contact with the rocks in the foreground. I was able to capture this illuminated splash.
Exif: F Number: 11, Exposure Bias Value: -1.67, ExposureTime: 1/10 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 200, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 70.00 mm, Model: NIKON D3
