Nice photograph from Jos Buurmans. The layers are interesting, but the shadow on the grass and the bit of light on the sand in front of it make it sing.

Lovely photograph from Ian Gaston. That background is a big part of why it works.
A double exposure showing the juxtaposition between soft and hard.

It is generally easy to recognize one of Sophie Carr’s motion-blur sea images right away.
I have a few favourite wave photos, taken over the years at a few beaches in #Iceland, and this is one of them, from this day in 2021. Slowing down the exposure (this is 0.3 sec) allows you to capture some beautiful movement 🌊

I enjoy watching the season transitions of photographic subjects on a platform like this. I sense that the autumn images area starting to wind down (despite me posting one today!), and I’m starting to see more that include snow and ice.

Lillian Schönberger says getting this required a two hour wait. That’s not uncommon, and often the conditions will look fairly drab before things light up briefly at sunset.
