I may not be able to respond to all comments, but I read and appreciate every one of them.

I am currently attending classes at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco, in the Photography department.

I hope to someday make photography a full time profession.

Thanks for viewing my blog. Please do not use my images without permission.

Very nice! I like the use of slow shutter speed to smooth the water.

Hiro from Kyoto, Japan

Fine weather for this photo. Do you use EF-S10-22mm?

@Hiro: This lens is the EF S 17-55 I love it! I do wish I had a wider angle sometines with the conversion factor or my sensor!

Eric Cousineau from Sherwood Park, Canada

Well done Tracy! Nice PP treatment that gives the water and almost fog-like quality. ;-)

@Eric Cousineau: Thanks Eric- I must admit that it was starting to get pretty dark when I shot this, so had to keep the shutter open for 4 seconds :)

What did you do here???!!! This is just glorious. You took a routine beach shot and turned it into a work of art. Well done.
