View of the sea with a long shutter speed.
Windmills are visible on the horizon and the chosen shutter speed shows that the blades of most of them are turning.
The sun is just shining through the clouds, giving a nice stripe of light on the sea.
There are two ships visible on which work is being carried out.
I had an idea in advance what kind of picture I wanted to make, after three evenings the conditions were good enough to capture this.
The image gives me a sense of space and calm.
By using a bigstopper Lee in combination with a gray gradient, I was able to give the sea a serene look.
The colors and the plane distribution are nicely balanced.
