Sea Breeze

Uploaded: February 03, 2011

Description

The surface of the wide sandy beach was sculptured with an array of fascinating patterns and shadows, alongside reflective tide pools of all shapes and sizes. And when the sea breezes would blow, the surface of the pools came alive with intricate little ripples. The nearby cliffs were aglow from the evening’s golden light, while in the distance the beacon in the lighthouse flashed faithfully… every 20 seconds... which is its assigned identifier. And all that before the sun even started setting! Cape Blanco, Oregon (Southern Oregon Coast)

Nikon D700 and 20mm f/2.8D lens, tripod mounted. f/6.3, 1/160th second exposure, ISO 200

Exif: F Number: 6.3, ExposureTime: 100/15999 seconds, ISO: 200, FocalLength: 20.00 mm, Model: NIKON D700
