Took loads of pictures the other weekend trying to replicate some of the photos of tide lapping at rocks beside the sea. I think I'd have got a better hit rate if the rocks were more attractive at the beach I tried but as it was my first go I wasn't too unhappy. This was one of the shorter exposures. I thought times of about 1-3 seconds produced some nice movement while 15-30 seconds gave the foggy look around the rocks. I took about 50 and this is my favourite of those.



I think I need to find a beach with a mixture of small groups of rocks and pleasant coloured sand (the sand here was a bit grey and the rocks tended to be in large shelves so you couldn't isolate them very easily).

I really like that - the colours in the stones are great.

One of my favourite photos that inspired me to have a go was by a chap called Adam Clutterbuck that he posted on here -
www.pbase.com/bishopsmead/image/30375020. He said the place is actually known locally as 'Dinosaur Egg Beach' which is exactly what I thought the rocks looked like, with mist swirling around them. Obviously it's the sea!
