Flinders Blowhole for Sunday Best

 




Joel and I spent a considerable amount of time attempting to capture the waves on the rock. It was a time-consuming endeavor. Achieving a long exposure for the initial shot posed significant challenges. If there was an abundance of waves, the white section would become entirely overexposed. Additionally, the fast aperture click for the second shot was often hindered by latency, causing us to miss the golden moment. Nevertheless, it was an enjoyable experience, as we were engaged in the art of photography.

On Flickr, I received an invitation to contribute to the Planet Earth project. Selecting images to submit to the group is quite challenging. The majority of images that I favor are cherished not because of their excellence, but due to the memories and experiences associated with each weekend adventure.

Recently, I received the land tax statement via email over the weekend. Quite an inconvenience!

  2. I love the way the waves break over the rock, but I think these two photos are in the wrong order. Splash first, and then water runs off. But that's just me. Congratulations on being selected to contribute photos to Planet Earth project. I think the committee made a great choice.

    1. The two images are not in succession. Taken in different shutter speed as well. Thank you for your pertinent support

  10. You can see the first photo on two scale's . First as a big island with little islands in the water and covered with snow. The second as it is true bolders in the water along the coast. Intriguing.

  18. I like the action of the waves, so dramatic. I grew up by the ocean but live far inland now, so I really like ocean photographs. Adding your photos to the Planet Earth project will be exciting, and probably hard to choose the best ones. Land tax statement by email? I though it would come by mail.
