Waves In Motion

A very grey morning allowed for ample opportunity to experiment with more wave motion blur. No combining this time like I did back in May, just a steady hand and my image stabilized 70-200. I had shots that were just a mass of blurry water, but felt they were a little too abstract for me. I like having something recognizable in the photo, something to anchor the movement of the wave and provide some contrast. This was a particularly good wave, curling all around the the branch and rope, yet not obscuring them. Good thing I got this shot early as the heavens opened up soon after and it poured for the remainder of the day.
