Yes, my shoes did get wet on this day. I propped up the tripod from this vantage point and used my handy Nikon remote to snap a multitude of shots. Ultimately, the ocean got the better of me and my shoes got soaked. All in a days work! I think the orange spot is a bit of lens flare. I decided not to clone it out as this is what the camera captured. Hopefully, it does not detract from the shot.

Hi Mike,

I love this shot the sea is really raking out, my feet feel wet just loooking at it! I even like the orange flare and am glad you left it in. The rocks really add something to

Cheers

Great work!I like this effect of a water.
Excellent view!

Awesome work and exposure for the unique effect. Great composition and point of view.

Absolutely brilliant !
best regards, Daniel

Hi Mike, an awesome idea, and effect!
I like the shot overall, but something about the big rock on the left doesn't seem to lend itself in a flattering way to the overall composition for me. Hope that's ok to say. I love it otherwise! - Peace, Vincent

SUPERBE TOUT SIMPLEMENT!
Very nice action shot and great tones.

My shoes get wet a lot when photographing at the beach, its the sacrifice you have to make to get great shots like this.

The wet shoes? It is not a drama when one sees the quality of the photo!
Very beautiful composition... and to the final a fantastic snapshot!
Thank you Mike for this very beautiful picture, alain

Les chaussures mouillées? Ce n'est pas un "drame" quand on voit la qualité de la photo!

Hi Mike,

thanks for facing this problem for us! The result justifies it. Excellent effect given by the long shooting time.

Well done!

Hi Mike
Wow! I'm surprise that you got that much movement/creaming in a 1/2 second. The tech is perfect. Little salt water on the tripod as well as your feet. All for a good cause. Is this one going on your web site?

Hi Mike

I'm glad I am not the only one that ends up with wet feet :) This is just stunning. I love the long exposure and the glorious light. This is just so beautiful!
