Natural landscapes: the last stand

ICE ALONG THE SHORELINE, WHITBY, ONTARIO

I loved the juxtaposition of this solitary ice chunk and the swirling water of Lake Ontario east of Toronto, Canada’s largest city. Used every darkening filter I owned to obtain an eight-second exposure, which smoothed out the rough edges of the winter waves. Nikon D50, tripod, polarizing filter, neutral density filter.

Very Nice Frank. The long exposure really does add to the image.

  Yep. Wouldn’t have made the picture if there wasn’t a way to slow down the exposure enough to ‘fuzzify’ the water. 🙂
