Blue pool and a moon

Blue pool and a moon by ozczecho

Blue pool and a moon

Sydney is not only blessed by a beautiful coastline providing us with countless beaches, but also some of these beaches have a “rock pool” at the headland. These rock pools provide a great place for the locals to take a dip in the ocean without the waves.

Photo Taken: 19-Nov-2006
Time: 6am
Conditions: Calm, beautiful pre dawn….

    Per Ove Sleen, 8 months ago

    So calm and beautiful.
    There is something special about the sea. I live by the sea, and have done so all my life. Spending time inland always gives me the feeling of slowly being suffocated, and I need to make for the coast. Not even lakes can satisfy my need for open space, salty water and the smell of eternally rotting seaweed and fish.
    This picture though might have made such a inland stay a bit more bearable if it was really necessary. I wold have plastered it all over my wall.
    You see it is beautiful, and you can nearly smell the coast :-)

    Hi Mandy, I took a little liberty with the white balance….but there is only limited stuff you can do….I shoot RAW, so WB adj was done prior to photoshop. In PS I adjusted the curves and upped the saturation a little….thats about it. I guess it was just the right timing. I havent managed to replicate the time again :-)...
