ENTRY DESCRIPTION
Early one morning, i went to an old pier on the south jersey shore .The ocean had long since destroyed most of the pier . Using a 10 stop neutral density filter, i recorded this picture with a tripod mounted camera, and a 24-70mm zoom lens. I bracketed the exposures between 1 and 3 minutes, thus allowing the water to achieve a thread like quality.The clouds also showed movement from the long exposures.
