sea abstract #2

This picture is from another go in this experimental series:

It is from a different location along the coast than the location for the earlier sea abstract.  It is  much safer from the  force of the frequent rogue waves.

This abstraction was made on a recent poodlewalk along the coast of the southern Fleurieu Peninsula, just  west of Dep's Beach 

I was scoping for a film shoot. This one is accessible at low tide  and I am able to  use a tripod.

This was made on a poodlewalk  yesterday with Heather Petty, and Kayla and Maleko:

Heather, who is a Nikon DSLR photographer,  had a  new Sony premium compact camera with her,  which she was trying out before  she started to use it for her underwater  photography.  It was a Sony Cyber-shot DSC RX100V --with a fixed lens I think. It is compact in the sense that Heather could put the camera in her  pocket.  

The Sony DSC RX100V's   point and shoot characteristic makes it ideal for underwater photography.

Experimenting:

But I'm not sure at this stage. 

The sea is the darker side of the coastal environment.  It is dangerous. So the images need to be darker.
