Ocean Rock Pool Swimmers * By Chris_S

Coogee Beach, Sydney Australia

This is a 20 second exposure of an ocean rock pool in Sydney with two swimmers enjoying and warm summer evening swim. The crashing waves have all been smoothed out by the long exposure.

Chris,
I agree with all the comments. I love the dreamlike quality and I'd love to visit this beautiful setting. Roberta

It is very dream-like, Chris. When I first viewed it, I thought there was a piece of glass superimposed on top of the pool. This is a most intriguing capture.---Deb

Very clever, Chris, like out of a dream-world - only one little nit - considering the topic I can't see much movement here :-)Having said that I do think it is a fantastic image in its own right...

Cheers, Bee

Now this is how you paint with light. A beautiful photograph. I live by the ocean and I can relate. Great job.

Love this - image just makes you feel the warmth - especially on a cold grey English day. - Steve

I've never seen waves blurred that much - it looks alien. I really like it!
