Lake or Sea?

This morning, I decided to capture the waves splash as they hit the rocks. I pushed the trigger countless times. Never satisfied of the result. I tried different spots, different angles. I went so close that I ended frozen and wet. Among all the photographs taken, this one expresses perfectly the whole situation ^^ Have to understand how to capture subject in movement...

Bruce Wow that's pretty cool :-) I think you did a great job capturing the wave energy. It's hard to get a really fast shutter speed in low light, but sometimes blur is better to instill a sense of movement.

NatZ Thank you Bruce. I didn’t really want to capture the movement but to fix the kind of « geiser » the water made. But actually, you are totally right I can’t get the wanted effect with such a poor light 😊

Bruce You would probably need a very high ISO and f1.8 lens, and even an external flash if you're close enough (which it looks like you were - you must have gotten really wet!) :-).

NatZ Soaked is the word?! But that can be the price when you get involved in something so interesting ^^
