Ventnor!

What was your apeture? The effect on the sea is beautiful!

Thanks! Glad you like it. I see you live on the Island too. You'll see a lot of photos of the Island in my gallery - most of them, as it goes.

As to the shot, the aperture was f/22 but the important thing for the sea is the exposure - 2 seconds.

You see i've been trying to work on water for a while now, so exposure is the thing to look at ? Not the aperture?

Yes yes Island Born and Bread!

Yup - you need to use a longer shutter speed to turn the water into mist; 1 or 2 seconds works well.

If you want to read more about it, try and get a copy of Bryan Petersen's book "Understanding Exposure" (see Amazon).

Good old Isle of Wight. I spent many a good holiday there many many years ago when I was a little girl. Had a shock when I went back a few years ago. Sandown just didn't seem the same

Alas everything is changing, even us. The sea is still the same though, at least on the surface.

I noticed the cliffs are crumbling at Lake and when I was there they had closed the outside swimming pool. so sad I couldn't share the lovely place with my children and spent nearly all holiday saying 'it wasn't like this and where's it gone?'
