This was one of my last captures before calling it a night, well after sunset. I'm calling this "Tranquility", but behind the scenes I was feverishly using a cloth (Kimwipe) to clean the sea mist off my filter. My intent was to try and get some long-exposure cloud action in the sky, and since I don't have the Big Stopper, I needed to wait until it was getting really dark. I was sure glad I had my LED flashlight to make it back to the car.
This rock was sitting in a calm pool of water slightly up the beach at low tide. My tripod legs were spread wide with ball head only a few inches above the water. Dark enough for 30 second exposure even at f/8. Thanks for looking!

Bowring Park, St. John's
Newfoundland Bowring Park is located in the Waterford Valley in the west end of St. John's. It is one of the most scenic parks in the city. The main entrance to the park is via Waterford Bridge Road, passing a duck pond and a statue of Peter Pan. The park land was donated to the city in 1911 by Sir Edgar Rennie Bowring on behalf of the Bowring Brothers Ltd on their 100th anniversary of commerce in Newfoundland. The park was officially opened by His Royal Highness, the Duke of Connaught on July 15, 1914.
There are a number of statues in the park, including two sculptures by Basil Gotta, one a Caribou and the other The Fighting Newfoundlander. The Caribou is a replica of the monument at the Beaumonth—Hamel Newfoundland Memorial Park and was presented to the park by Major William Howe Green, a cousin of Sir Edgar Bowring. The Fighting Newfoundlander, a tribute to the Royal Newfoundland Regiment with Corporal Thomas Pittman as the subject, was also a gift from Sir Edgar Bowring. The statue was unveiled by Sir William Horwood in September 1922.
The Peter Pan statue was erected in memory of Sir Edgar Bowring's grandchild, Betty Munn, who had drowned along with her father at the sinking of the Florizel at Cappahayden. The statue was unveiled on August 29, 1925.
Lake Awosting - Wawarsing, NY
This is a zoomed from the previous picture. I love how still the water is compared to the clouds directly above it. It just looks very tranquil.
Calm seas and just enough wind for a leisurely sail... just another tranquil day at Palm Island in the Grenadines.
Whilst in Switzerland, we were staying in Zurich, but had the urge one day to hire a car (we got a nice little Audi A3) and drive to Lucerne and Interlaken. It was a beautiful day - had snowed the night before... the Lake was just so still and calm.
Switzerland is so beautiful - I can't wait to get back there (I know I say that about all my holiday locations - but I mean it!)
Hope you like it!
I've been feeling a little uninspired and unmotivated lately (photography wise). Almost like writers block.. so I had to get out into the fresh air and try and get back into the swing of things..
Spent a beautiful afternoon at the Yanchep National Park (around 60km or so north of Perth). Couldn't resist taking a snap of the gorgeous lake at sunset. Ahhh..a relaxing Sunday afternoon indeed.
I suddenly feel better already, as I'm quite proud of this one.
