Love these Callie. I love the colour of the ocean. I too like shipwrecks. There is one close to where I live and my plan is to go this coming weekend to check it out - weather dependent of course.

Thanks, Kathy. We live ± 1400 km from the Cape. Last time we were there was 2011, then again 2019. So, we seldom see the sea! And the one day we were at the wreck, there was no sun and a bit of a drizzle. Take a WA lens and walk right up to the wreck to shoot it. Boats, too are high on my enjoyment and other people's dogs on the beach!

1400 km is a good trek to the ocean! Lol, I’m a 10 minute drive! The wreck I referred to is about 1 hour away. Little sun, overcast, drizzle, fog - welcome to the ocean (at least where I live)! The good part of that kind of weather is that you can shoot all day. The downside is boring and often blown skies. I don’t think I can walk up to the wreck, if I remember correctly it is in the water - moored on the rocks. But, the wide angle will be with me.

Beauts! Callie!

 

[Cristobal]

Beautiful shot! The shipwreck seems to integrate itself in the landscape, taking colours both of the ocean and of the reef.

 

[Gongster]

Yes I like the colours, smashing shots.

 

[Dave Wo]

great color work . Love the old wrecks too, but not many along our coast in Texas.

 

[Callie]

Thank you for looking folks, I appreciate!

 

[Laurent Dieu]

Lovely shots. My favorite one is the second one.

Very nice! I want to use my 24-70m at 24mm. Your shots done at the same focal length is a great idea. Let your feet do the zooming.

Great shots Callie! Nice colour and detail and rather zoom by walking works well.
