The waves in Long Island sound are small and lifeless... they dont make for much drama in the long exposure department. However, they do allow for some cool geometric shots and they do allow for the texture of the sand to show through, so I tried to capitalize on that. I like the color contrast with the water and the pier. I used a circular polarizer to get the ripples in the sand to show through the water to nice effect. Overall, I am actually quite pleased with the shot.
Let me know what you think. Enjoy :)

Only a little remains of this temple, and the three columns are from Roman antiquity, but only from the last phase of the building and not in their original position. The name of the temple is NOT a strange name of the god Apollo, but instead a temple dedicated to Apollo by a man carrying the name of Sosianus. His full name was Gaius Sosianus and he started the building of this temple in 34 B.C. - replacing older structures, dating all the way back to the middle of the 5th century or perhaps even older than that. The building process was stopped by the conflict between Octavian and Mark Antony - because Sosianus sided with Antony and after his loss it took some time for Sosianus to regain his position and to be able to continue with the building. It was probably finished around 20 B.C.
After the collapse of the Roman empire the temple turned into ruins, and those ruins were used for habitation up until the 1930s when they were torn down and the columns were reconstructed in the way they are still displayed - they are the ancient marble columns, all the parts except the base are from the Roman temple, but they were laying in pieces on the ground.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say this is a Corinthan capital - though I found it in Alicante, Spain.

there were times when it seemed to well up from the very ground.... as if crystal city was an oil travelling up a wick
