It’s Tuesday and time for another Long Exposure image.  In mid-February, I drove out at sunset with the the aim of shooting some long exposure images.  The sky held promise with scattered clouds and the sunset did not disappoint.  This was the outing in which I captured one of my favorite images – Doaks Lane Sunset.  Immediately before that image, I had captured this one.

The tide was just perfect for me to walk down to the beach and navigate to these rocks.  I set up the tripod and opened the shutter for 118 seconds to get this image.  As in the Sunset image, the water in little harbor has been stilled and turned mirror-like.  The barnacle covered rocks serve as a sharp contrast to the stillness and the sky offers the only hint of motion in the streaking of the clouds.  I could not have planned the break in the clouds any better as it seems to circle around Gerry island.  You can just make out the path to the island that forms at low tide.
