Glass on the Beach

Glass on the Beach

~ digital sea glass contest photo by Lisa Rice - Pittsburgh, PA

This photo was taken in Maine, USA. The beach where the glass was found was on a privately owned island which was pretty inaccessible.

But the difficulties we experienced in getting there made the experience all the more valuable in my mind.

The date was November 2010. Rough, but not stormy ocean.

Windy, cold, with white caps, but a crystal clear blue sky with big white puffy clouds.

What were your feelings or impressions when taking this photo?

Sea Glass offers a photographer the opportunity to capture vibrant, transparent color (or lack there of in this photo) beautifully softened by the ocean's hard labor.

My intent was to create an image that reflected the peace that I experience when hunting light.

What kind of camera and/or lens did you use?


What tips or suggestions do you have for other photographers?

White Balance, White Balance, White Balance.

Photograph the things that your eyes fall in love with and tell a story with your image.
