What a strange vintage we are. Constantly needing to photograph each thing, each moment. What other species demands to self archive everything? The same information, experiences, places visually captured over and over again. What do we expect to learn from it; from taking a picture of it all? No Coining - All Rights Reserved

Slipping into the ocean alone at night

Slipping into the ocean alone at night. Whats out there? Will it eat me? There has to be a shark. In a word, fear. It consumes your mind.

At shallow depths, depending the moon, even without a light you can still see. Of course with one you can see more.

The ocean, just like the land has nocturnal creatures. So with a dive light and a point and shoot it was time to see if they could be captured.


Seems the equipment on hand was not suited to take pictures, so it was time to switch to video.



Swimming back to shore it was time to work with the natural light in the shallow water. 
The coolest thing about this picture is that the blur comes from the waves moving the water, which refracted light while the shutter was open.
