Surf and Sunset

Surf and Sunset - Alpa STC, IQ 180, 32 HR, ~f/11, 2s, ISO 35

I made this image almost a year ago on a shoot at Davenport beach with friends, but it wasn't until this weekend that I had the urge to process it and bring out what I had in mind when I made the capture.  I think the tide was slowly coming in that evening and so the waves would slowly get higher and higher.  I loved the contrast of the white of the surf against the warmly lit black and so I timed my 2s exposure for maximum waves.  We are starting to head into what is a good time for Big Sur coast photography, the spring.  Though I can walk somewhat, a beach is probably something I won't be visiting for a little while longer and slippery rocks with steep hikes not for many months.
