The Ocean.
“I dropped a tear in the Ocean,
and whenever they find it I’ll stop loving you,
only then.”
In the midst of all this turbulence, there is a heart-shaped opening in the wave.
The ocean showed me some love.
“Love is like Pi – natural, irrational and very important.”

These images were taken barely a second apart. This one preceded the one above.
At the center of this are 3 orange glowing reflections as if an object were being tossed about.
These 2 images were created shortly after sunrise.
They are more turbulent than the images posted yesterday and were taken about 1 mile apart.
Different lenses…different settings.
ISO 400 – 1/125 second f13
75-300mm lens at 180mm
So, how do I do this?
I tend to shoot dark and contrasty.
I sometimes use Singh Ray filters; gold n blue polarizer or color intensifier.
But I didn’t for these photos.
Images are nurtured in Photoshop and OnOne Software.



It’s driving me crazy! I want to know what that object is! These are great!!

I know. It’s the greatest reflection. I couldn’t duplicate that in 100 years.
It’s almost shaped like a kids whirlybird top toy.
