A moment in time (Explored)

Had a little jaunt along to Seaford Head today to check out the beach.

The tide was in so I made use of the stairs leading down.

Thanks to my saved custom white balance from my castle walk I composed this shot and had it ready to rock in a few seconds.

I thought I would get in the shot for a bit of interest and share the view as well.

I would like to say I have beaten the Hitech pro stopper getting quite a few LE shots I'm pleased with from this walk.

This is an exposure of 136 seconds
