Tidal Rocking

[ click to enlarge ]

I shot this in Marina Del Rey a few weeks ago. I was trying to take pictures of the boats, but the low light necessitated exposures that were 15-20 seconds long. With the boats rocking in the water, nothing came out in focus. When it occurred to me to put the camera ON the boat to isolate the movement, the resulting image blew me away.
