Just The Right Conditions

I don't often experience the water like this, the sun has to be in the correct position with a certain quality of light, blue sky and just the right kind of swell. I have made images like this before, but when the conditions are right, I can't resist.

It's hard to see with the eye because the water is moving and rising and falling. The result only apparent when viewing the image. Thank goodness for digital.

I think it's the metallic quality of the water and blue colour. It reminds me of highly polished old cars.
