Back to personal favourites. The water was still enough for the boat not to be rocking, but a 30s exposure smothed it out completely. What I like here is that I was able to position the camera, by working my way down the beach to get the boat under the arch of cloud - which is then reflected in the sea. A subtler thing I like is the light from the flashing channel markers, and the buoys, providing a visual counterweight to the boat, and the few pinpricks of artificial light on the far shore.

Love how that central strip is the only part appearing to be in focus...dreamy image ffking.

Thank you - that's just a side effect of the long exposure, of course, as both sea and cloud are showing motion blur - but you're right - it's something I hadn't thought about
