The front of the Wave complex. For most of the time on public display at Steam and Brick 2014 a set of Christmas lights lite up the windows but the batteries leaked. Sulphuric acid and Lego is not a good mix. Now it lies dark.
in the turbulent inter-tidal zone, the breakers wash over this sturdy seaweed that I named 'palm tree seaweed'. Not a clear shot...but I liked the subject matter.
Spent the weekend in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan near Marquette. Beautiful weather and a beautiful trip. One of my favorite areas to visit local to me. Great geology, great hiking, lovely weather and great people.
These two photos are at Wetmore Landing taken shortly before sunset (sunlight behind me). I highly regret not having my filter sets with me at this time, but I was trying to pack light and didn't have them or my tripod.
Canon 1DX2, 24-70/2.8, 64mm @ f/18, 1/160th, ISO100
Lit with 2x Canon 600EX-RT, with one placed inside the helmet, to light up the viewing window. Main light was fired front right and left separately, then composited in post using a layer mask.
Had I had a third Canon 600EX-RT, I'd have preferred to capture in just the one image.
You can see seaweed taking a pounding from breaking waves but still growing on the rock Garrapata State Park, south of Carmel-by-the-Sea, California
Wave in the ocean is never still. Whether observing from the beach or a boat, we expect to see waves on the horizon. Waves are created by energy passing through water, causing it to move in a circular motion. However, water does not actually travel in waves. Waves transmit energy, not water, across the ocean and if not obstructed by anything, they have the potential to travel across an entire ocean basin.
Waves are most commonly caused by wind. Wind-driven waves, or surface waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. As wind blows across the surface of the ocean or a lake, the continual disturbance creates a wave crest. These types of waves are found globally across the open ocean and along the coast.
The only link between Loch Ness and the sea is the River Ness which is broad and shallow...
