This image was one of my top five favorites from the week. It was about 6:15 a.m. and the sun had just risen. It was overcast all week, but the clouds were quite fun to shoot. What you are looking at is the Perdido Pass which separates Florida from Alabama. Our condo we were staying in was just 1/8 of a mile from this waterway. The white top is the result of the waves through a long exposure catch. The ones are the left are going back and the one on the right is coming in. Anyway, I really like this picture.
Here’s the exif data for the photogs:
Camera: Canon 20D Lens: 28-135mm IS USM Focal Length:28mm Tv: 1 sec Av: f/28.0 ISO: 100 WB: Custom (6100K)

dang, you really know what you’re doing.
BTW, I save most of your friday fotos to my hard drive, and have considered using them as a background in my pastor’s sermon presentation (multimedia)…but first i thought i had better ask your permission.
Gavin,
No problem man. Feel free to use them as you like. I have been thinking about using some of the images as PPT backgrounds for my own use, maybe even throwing a verse or quote on it.
Thanks for asking however, and I hope they find good use in your ministry.
I read the following this past week and your picture reminded me of it:
“‘He hath compassed the waters with bounds, till the day and night come to an end’ (Job 26:10). This is several times mentioned in Scripture as a signal mark of Divine strength (Job 38:8; Prov. 8:27). He hath measured a place for the sea, and struck the limits of it as with a compass, that it might not mount above the surface of the land, and ruin the end of the earth’s creation; and this, while day and night have their mutual turns, till he shall make an end of time by removing the measures of it.” (from Stephen Charnock, “On the Power of God,” The Existence and Attributes of God, Vol. 2, Grand Rapids: Baker Book House, 1979 reprint of the 1853 edition. 7)
Great quote and Scripture Andrew!
