Puresilk Images (AWAY)
The Rising Sun
“There's a sunrise and a sunset every single day, and they're absolutely free. Don't miss so many of them.”
― Jo Walton
Carl's opening line and John Westrock's postings of quotes with his superb images on his photostream reminded me of one I read earlier today so I thought I was try one out for size.
This image took me a while and was a pain in the butt to finalize. Not for the fact that it was 11 portrait images wide and 3 exposures per image. It was the fact that I took many of each frame to try and time the waves with the next shot.
Knowing from previous ocean shots when I'm not smoothing the water out hugely with the help of long exposures, waves have to match up with the next shot and this I have found takes practice. But I also don't have all the time in the world due to light changing rapidly and the sky clouds shifting.
Attempting to sift through them all and getting shots that the waves blended with the next image was a nightmare. I tried many combinations and finally found a combination that worked... I think....
Perhaps I should just stick to some non panoramic shots for a while....
