I really like the perspective of number four. So very close to the water as is in a kayak.
The camera was about a foot above sea level. I was very, very careful to watch for waves and not drop it. 🙂
I think the first photograph is simply excellent. Had the horizon line been anywhere but the center, the dichotomy would have been lost. I just love the contrast of this image. Beautiful.
Thanks Jay. Thinking of doing a print run, if you’re interested?
