Every drop



In contrast to my earlier post of waves breaking at Felixstowe, this shot was made with a fast shutter speed to freeze ever water droplet in place - just 1/1600th of a second. This creates a very different effect from the slow shutter speed, of course. Our own eyes can't freeze motion like this, and so, at the opposite end of the exposure range, it again doesn't look like a wave splash we are familiar with. Which is part of the fun.
