A sunset one also

iso 100, f 22, ss 1 sec, polarising filter and tripod

I took this at about 9pm tonigh (6th Jan). I cranked everything up as much as possible to slow down the shutter speed and get the misty water effect. I'm pretty happy with this one. but I would like the ss to be a bit slower still. The tide was coming in and it was getting dark so definitely time to go home. You may recognise this scene, it's one of my favourite places to take pics and featured heavily on my blog last year.

W O W. I just got a polarizing filter for Christmas, and if this is the type of shots I can look forward to, I'm so excited to start trying!

There is a reason you've got so many comments:) **sigh** if only I could be transported into your image with a nice cup of coffee and a book and...I digress...
