Hi Everyone:
I believe this is my 1st wave shoot. I probably shot about 90 pics, but
this was the best of the bunch. The others weren't very interesting mainly
because I didn't time the shots right or the wave didn't turn out as
dramatic as I thought it might or the composition was uninteresting.
Getting all of the aforementioned just right at the same time was hard.
Birds were everywhere as well--so I cleaned up the sky quite a bit--lots of
blurry black spots polluting that drab looking sky :-).
I found shooting waves quite a challenge. I tried to use all my senses to
anticipate where the big splashes might be but it often didn't work out. I
tried to rely on hearing, but it seemed the louder and incoming wave was the
less interesting was the splash when it hit the shore :-). If anyone has
any tips, I'd be grateful. I probably should try this again with an ND
filter, no? Also, I'd be interested in knowing which crop you prefer--I've
cropped the jogger out of the 2nd pic.
Anyway, comments/critique welcome--I could use some help in shooting this
subject.
