Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Rialto Beach” by James K. Papp. Location: Olympic National Park, Washington.
“At Rialto Beach, I positioned myself on the foreground rock outcropping to shoot the incoming, rushing tide,” says Papp. “The looming clouds added a moodiness to the scene. Several times I got wet as the tide circled around the outcropping I balanced on with the tripod.”
Sony A7r II camera, Zeiss Loxia 21mm f/2.8 lens, MeFoto tripod, Circular Polarizer and ND filters. 2.5 second exposure, ISO 100, f/18.
