    I love how the background seems to be moving whilst the subject is still. Care to explain how you did that, Rick? Posted 14 years ago

    Thanks Ferdy. It's partly an illusion of the light.

    I made sure the background was out-of-focus, but I could see the highlights were distorted by the lens & wave motion. I probably wouldn't have take the image without it.     Posted 14 years ago
