Craig Williams, The Monitor Lizard Drinking from the Ocean (SEASCAPE 2024)

This shot of the shoreline North of Smokey Cape reminds me of a giant Monitor Lizard coming down to the shoreline to have a drink from the ocean. The shot is a 13 Second exposure to smooth the surface of the ocean, the wind was very strong at the time and I had extra shots with the idea of Exposure blending the shots to get tack sharp foliage, however I liked the slightly ethereal look of the movement in the foliage and so decided to go with just the one shot.
