Description

A long exposure captures an ocean wave as it crests and curls, its form blurred by the motion of the water. The body of the wave is a deep blue, while the crest transitions into a foamy white. The wave curls as it moves right to left and slightly towards the camera. Above the wave, the sky is infused with colors of peach, orange, and purple, with bands of light that stretch across the horizon, suggesting either sunrise or sunset. The water's surface is rippled and textured, reflecting the ambient light.
