So I spent well over an hour in just this one location trying many different angles and exposure times. I had no idea what the final image was going to be when I set this shot up, but I am pretty happy with the outcome all the same.

I have been using neutral density and gradual NDs quite a bit lately. Since I live on the coast there is an abundance of water with varying degrees of turbidity and/or movement, so it's fun to explore different artistic takes on scenery.

I finally got some free time to go out and drive around some of the great coastline in my area. I found this dock along Perdido Bay which has been abandoned for many years. It has been neglected and torn apart by many storms in the area over the years but somehow still stands as a remnant to what was probably once a fun and exciting family weekend recreation activity.

I guess since you are here, and your pedigree is beyond reproach due to belonging to a specific members group. I bequeath the most prestige award I can offer you.

I did this a couple of weeks ago:

The family and I set out to spend the day at Fort Pickens. I thought that was a great idea. There is one particular spot in the fort that is not very well lit, but I wanted to go back and spend some time with a tripod to play around with angles, perspective, etc...

We get ready to head out, and I make a conscience decision to bring just the bare essentials as I do not want to take my entire backpack with me. So I grab my camera, spare battery, extra lens, and tripod....easy day!

We get to Fort Pickens and I immediately go to the spot mentioned previously. I set up the tripod and go to mount the camera and quickly discover that I have indeed grabbed by backup tripod with a Manfrotto head on it. My camera has an L bracket attached

OK, don't panic, I almost certainly have a backup tripod mount for this! Nope, the one time I didn't bring my camera bag with me (on person or in the car). Needless to say I spent the rest of the visit moping around like a kid that fell into a puddle before school.

Just in time for X-mas!

There is a lot of work being done and it will take some time to digest all of the changes. But the link to the release page is below:
