2014 Sony World Photography Awards 2014 Third Place Professional Category in Nature & Wildlife for "Wave Exploration" by the World Photography Organization. Low level view of breaking wave over rocks as seen if one was laying prone and beached on the surf line. My aim was to do make an image contrary to what I shoot more often—long exposure photography. In full sunlight, I set my Nikon D800E camera to ISO 3200 to obtain a high shutter speed with maximum depth of field. I photographed with Live View through a waterproof bag. Drying off the outside lens often, awkward camera positions and tight finger space were some of my main challenges.
