Wonderful image. I love the rough texture on the solids and the silky smooth liquid. Wish I had taken that!!!

Beach, sand, water and long exposure I presume. Good recipe for this nice picture that shows us on one hand the texture of the sand and on the other and hides us water wavelets. Well done

Yes, pure water alright. This kind of capture gives a sense of metal liquid to the water. And only with the usual editing
These are my "rayograms"

It is a very interesting and Zen-like image in my opinion. I was interested in the metering technique you used for this. I assume it was taken at night under moonlight, with a long exposure, probably something like 10 minutes.
I'm asking because I had something similar in my mind but I'm struggling with the technical details
Anyway, keep up the great work!

In fact this photo was made in daylight at 1/30 seconds or so. This photos are hard to get right because of the random reflections and flares.

Well that was unexpected 
I'll take note of that and be more observant of stuff around me.

Sorry to disappoint, but this images have little editing, the secret remains in the capture

I greatly appreciate this piece. The lack of discernible scale and interesting forms entrance me.

Impressive! I love the chrome look and abstractness. The photo is so crisp that the texture is quite an eye candy.

Coz the water, I think... Or the toning...
π: 0 β©: 1
I like the texture of the stone and of the water.
Split toning is fine too.
I can't wait for the complet "The Blue Series"

Thank you, very much!
I'm afraid that the complete series don't exist. Not now, maybe never, but I believe some more will see the light.

Well, I read my devwatch in the wrong way.
I started by the last dev instead of the first, so I though it was the first of the serie and the other weren't post and shot yet :/
Anyway it still remains a great shot and postprod

No prob at all
In fact I started this series in January, numbered some images and later abandoned a few. So maybe some numbers, in between, will never exist. At this time, I really don't know.

can you tell me something about the photoshop work you did in this series?
π: 0 β©: 1
Almost nothing, really. This is an unmanipulated image, hard to believe, I know.
The little secret is on the capture, only, but still a secret.
I use desaturate (primitive I know), slightly darken the grays, a gradient map for toning, and USM of course, that's all. Cheers and thanks.
