The Last Splash

In Explore. Highest position: 14

 

I posted a series of these "Splash" photos quite a few months ago, this is the last one. A very different wave from my usual fare, this is a gentle splash against some steps on the Severn Estuary seawall, the sediment rich water giving lots of colour when lit by the dawn sunlight. The comment most frquently used on those previous images was "Coke or Pepsi?" - you decide.

 

I should also mention that these shots cost me nearly £500 for a new Canon 24-105 lens after the soaking it got when I wasn't quick enough to pull it away ruined it (I really can't afford this hobby), thankfully the camera was alright though, so my advice? Don't try this at home folks!

 

I've included the exact coordinates of the steps below and if you paste them into Google Earth you may also notice that I was just outside Saint Bride's Wentlooge, great name eh? (No street view though.)
