This shot is the first from a theme organised for Aminus3 by Damon Schreiber - thanks!

Hi guys!
This year I'll be putting up fewer shots, but hopefully improving the quality at the same time. Sort of a 'best of' if you like.
This community is terrific in so many ways - I love it even if I don't often comment. The people on here make it a great place to be.
I'm also writing a health-related blog - if you're interested, hop on over to http://healthskills.wordpress.com/

Love the desaturation here Bronnie. Adds a dreamy feeling to the shot, enhanced by the blur of the water. Beautiful.

@Stu: Thanks Stu - it's probably a wee bit darker on here than I anticipated, but I was having fun with the long shutter speed!!

Zing from Hamilton, New Zealand

Nice shot of the waves, lovely!

Well - here I am! I've been spammed to death! But no- that shouldn't stop me visiting, quite rightly, as you point out! You do a great job in this style - I've noticed the way you use the technique before - very smooooooooth.

@Sidonie: You too huh? Just one or two of my shots are being spammed a lot, what a pain! Plus the server has been doing whoopsie's quite a lot...

badala from Leiria, Portugal

Anne from White Rock, Canada

Lovely image of the foam on the beach - love these shots you have with the slow shutterspeed making it "flow" - seems a while since I came here - your links weren't working :-)

1 May 2007 9:20am

@Anne: The links haven't been working well, I think it's to do with the server overload. Shame! Glad you came this time!

Manuela Photography from Hainburg, Germany

Awesome!

I like the simplicity of the dark sand and blurred water. It does look very dreamlike.

@Jason Kravitz: I hope it's a reverie and not a nightmare!!

Jen from Jessup, United States

Beautiful shot Bronnie!! I just love the water and how silky smooth it is!! : )

Daroru from Amagasaki, Japan

Like the Calvin Klein vibe Bronnie!

1 May 2007 1:04pm

@Daroru: Hadn't truly thought of it like that, but now I come to think of it!!!!

Duncan Galbraith from Kyoto, Japan

gorgeous stuff Bronnie! Jen summed it up well with 'silky smooth'. Lovely.

1 May 2007 1:19pm

@Duncan Galbraith: Thanks Duncan, thanks for your visit!

Lyndsey Le from Houston, United States

@frank: Thanks Frank, I love the sea, must be some sort of marine genes in me!

Ken McCoy from Orlando-Daytona Beach, FL, United States

Nice image of water in motion -- great b/w tones!

1 May 2007 7:14pm

@Ken McCoy: Thanks Ken, I did have momentary thoughts that B&W wasn't the 'right' thing for it, but I'm glad I tried it!

Yvon from Meerkerk, Netherlands

I've got nothing to add to all the others. Great dreamy shot!

1 May 2007 8:11pm

@Yvon: Thanks Yvon, glad to have you visit!

amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada

Bronnie... perfect. When I sit back in my chair with a sigh as it's loading.. ya know it's a good one... and I did. ;-D

1 May 2007 9:26pm

@amy: Thanks Amy - you're a real flatterer!

Damon Schreiber from Toronto, Canada

Excellent work; I love that blur. It looks like a beach from a dream. Thanks for your help in making this theme a success, Bronnie!

1 May 2007 11:03pm

@Damon Schreiber: Thanks for your work in getting it all together! It's great theme - and lots of variation in interpretation!

H.O from Victoria, Canada

Great work, beautiful water :)

@H.O: Thanks H.O!

Alfredo J. Martiz J. from Tokyo, Japan

I love this shot, the tones, the motion blur, excellent work!

Daniel from Olympia, United States

Oh, this is very nice. Lovely tones and the exposure legnth is spot on to give the water a wonderful ghostly look. I would try a lower angle to get closer to the water.

Maoya from Rolle, Switzerland

Great job, what a surreal feeling.

Evie from Fairfax, United States

Nice - I love the blurred water that implies motion.
