Dean Maguire, PROVOKED (Places)

While there is a big swell hitting the NSW coast most are out capturing waves, surfers and the raw power of the ocean, I love seeing these images although I am seeing opportunity elsewhere. The more movement in the seas the smoother long exposure you can come away with. For some time over wanted to capture this exact image although conditions and skill had been the greatest decide. I have dramatized the sky to create the story and mood of the morning. Using the Wild seas, With this fine art approach and a 4.5 minute exposure you have something quite unique from Bronte beach.
