Roquetas de Mar

Long exposures can be striking. Often, not always though, it helps to have static objects to maintain a steady base where movements flow around. This photograph was shot late and I cannot remember the precise exposuretime (The photograph is 12 years old) but I believe it was 1 minute. However, I do remember that just as I was to take my gear to the car and drive off, the police came down to the beach and I had to open up all my bags and had to explain in detail why I was there. When they were satisfied that I only had cameragear they let me go. I learned days later that the police had a tipoff of a major drugdrop somewhere along the beach and then ofcourse I looked suspicious being all alone in a remote and quiet place.....
