A Tropical Smoothie

[chrisc]

This is a blend of a normal beach scene shot and a 2 minutes exposure with a big stopper filter, f/25, ISO 50. While I like the smoothing effect of the big stopper, I also like to see just a little more "action" or definition in the moving water. The wind was blowing about 20 knots to my back and keeping the tripod hard and fast was quite a challenge.

That is an interesting effect Chris. Artistic with a hint of reality, kind of right but not quite right at the same time.
