Description So they tried to get out...but only made it to the beach

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Fishing trawlers washed ashore in stormy seas 2 weeks ago.
Unluckily there weren't any clouds so I had to make do with the clear skies.

This is Melkbosstrand, South Africa and you can see Table Mountain and Cape Town in on the Horizon

Ansie-Ans [2008-08-12 08:56:50 +0000 UTC]

What a beautiful place indeed This shot works just as well without clouds, I think even better maybe. Really well done, you are very privilaged to live in the most beautiful part of our country (I'm jealous now ), I used to live in Mosselbay, but unfortunately now I make the best of smoggy ol' Gauteng

hougaard In reply to Ansie-Ans [2008-08-12 10:36:57 +0000 UTC]

that sucks, I get depressed at the thought of GP! imagine some clouds streaking over the boat towards table mountain....

Ansie-Ans In reply to hougaard [2008-08-12 17:11:47 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I know, GP is pretty bad. Well, ummmm, ok so it would look great with clouds too...but I must say I really like it without the clouds. It has a "summer at the beach" feel to it without them, except for the boats, that will change once you have clouds.

So clouds would fit more with the boats though, almost as if to refer to the storms that passed just before

beautiful!
if you don't mind my asking,
how do you make the water look like that?
is it an exposure or something on the camera?
