Been wild down here, and have been fighting the camera.
Just figured out how to stop it focusing on the sea wall rather than the action.
After I took this shot.

Wreck of HMVS Cerberus, sunk as a breakwater for Black Rock Yacht Club in maybe 1926.
Like most things we do down here, dismal failure. On the wrong angle, and corrosion from the wreck made the water dissolve mooring chains when boats moored here.

Hmmm interesting!

Google 'back button focus' with your camera type.
It takes the auto focus off the shutter button, so you can set your focus and re-compose.
Handy setting to know.

Have set it to single point centre focus - Nikon Aw1, very advanced auto focus but you tend to get the waves in the foreground in perfect focus.
Cerb in kinder conditions.

I have my camera set to this with the AF On button serving as my focus button. Whenever someone else grabs the camera it seems to throw them - literally!

I know that feeling. Thats when I wanna go full frame!

Good light makes me do everything really fast; drive to the beach, load the camera, get in the water!
The other day the sky was amazing, got in the water and my focus mode was set wrong.
All the way back to the car I had to go!
lol.

Took this 2 hours ago with my phone (Samsung Note 4) in one hand, travel mug of red in the other, and with a baby strapped to my chest.
Came out ok considering.



No processing although the phone may have had HDR mode switched on.

I might have one or two other decent ones of the hundred or so I took
