Description
AloooooooHa!
I hope every one's weekend has been going along splendidly and your all getting some killer shots. It goes without saying that RR has been crawling along like a snail on crutches with a limp lately, and I'm sure everyone is quite bored with the waiting period. It's just about impossible to get in sometimes, much less trying to comment...So if you care to comment or not, it's all good..I feel your pain. I'm sure better days are coming and I look fwd. to the new changes, till then I will grit my teeth and hope for the best.
I thought I would try and post something from this mornings shoot at an area they call the hot ponds. This area has a salt water pool that is feed directly from the ocean. Unfortunately the pool is behind me on this shot. The sun was in the wrong position to shoot the ponds, so I just shot the sunrise...not a very eventful sunrise, but it was nice to get out early and cleanse the soul. Hang in there everyone, better days are coming...I can feel it! Aloha to everyone!

Hey, dont forget the ticks that poor snailed suffered from, lol. It has indeed been extremely slow,but hopefully itll pick up some speed after june 14th. Doesnt matter much to me since ill be busy working all next week anyway. Gorgeous shot here my friend. This is the definition of Fine Art in my opinon. Love the colors, and the silky water looks like steam coming out from a witchs cattle. Brilliant work buddy!!!! Have a wonderful day, and ill see you in a week when i get my vacation. #:O)

Such a beautiful and magical capture and I know exactly where you hare. Hope the snail improves with higher speeds. Aloha
Uneventful is not the word I would use either - LOL, know what you mean though but this is fantastic anyway! +++
Dreamlike quality to the beautiful sunrise and the waters edge. This couldn't be better in any way. Super shot! HUGS!!!
I guess this goes to show that when you are in beauty, a beautiful picture shows its true blue. Its a fabulous shot.
what a shot mate!!! After looking at these shots of yours I'll have to do a trip there oneday ;P awesome shot!!! Excellent work as always! Hope you have a great week! ;)
The colour is excellent, very good scene!
Nice!!!!!!!! Love the colors and the foam!!!!
A gorgeous image! Great colors.
Beautiful photo! The slow shutter really gives the moving water the feel of being about to start steaming, while the blue of the rest of the water makes a nice accent. Still looks like you got the "hot ponds" despite pointing your camera the other way.
glorious mood! love the movement of the waves and the purple moody tones!
Beaut shot and timing. Reminds me a Lee Frost's style.
Awesome colors and light. Exposure and composition are excellent. Your seascapes are getting better and better. As you know, I always end up pointing my camera to the ocean. Your ocean photographs are a treat to watch. The portraits you've posted in the last weeks are also very good. Great work!
wow..this is a stunning shot
Great colors, and I love the long exposure on the waves.
Good pic.. you must be proud of them... :)
Dark to light with the minor colors a and an amazing blue master. Love the feel of this shot. Excellent timing!
