Apollo Bay Storm by robjdickinson, on Flickr

Such a nightmare to shoot this! Taken at Marengo just round from Apollo Bay, VIctoria. The rocks were so slippery, I fell over twice. Had huge waves rolling in , howling wind as the storm came in from the sea.

Its a 4 shot panoramic stitched manually - could probably have got away with 2 or 3 frames but this game me some leeway when blending the waves.

Thanks for looking, comments welcome.

Rob,

Great drama and sweet light. Love the glow off the rocks and the wave action. This is a great looking pano. The only nit pick I got is maybe clone out the building lights on the left hand side but that's just personal taste.

Really awesome pano. Great mood.

Similar to Jason's comment, I find my eye is drawn to the LHS lights.

Thanks for sharing,

Eric

I like the way you've captured the waves--very dynamic image that has my eye moving around in a good way.

Hey Rob,

That sounds like a tricky shot for sure, gotta watch for slippery rocks at the ocean. And to do a pano You must be part crazy... I am not sure I would try a pano at the ocean, just too many moving elements in the water. But it looks like you did well with it.

Hah Cheers Jim. Always got to be pushing on you know!

To clone the lights out or not. Probably if/when I print it.

May even send this one into the pano awards.
