Water Fun

Posted by
Bettina (Los Angeles, United States) on 29 July 2011 in Documentary & Street and Portfolio.

There was so much action on the pier it was quite a challenge finding enough space to take a picture.
...
Busy day yesterday. Will catch up today.

Ronnie 2¢ from Atlantic Shores, United Kingdom

There is a lovely infusion about this caused, in part, by the long exposure having taken in so much of the action . . a real nice one to sit and stare at over coffee ! Five*****s.

Roman from Thiersee, Austria

eigentlich erstaunlich, wie wenig "Geister" du bei 30 sec. Belichtung auf dem Bild hast; die Leute haben sich wohl extra wenig bewegt.
hervorragend, wie du die ganzen Lichter und Bewegungen der Fahrgeschäfte eingefangen hast und schöne Sterne an den Spitzlichtern.
großartige Foto!
