Photohunters: Ripples

The photohunters theme this week is ripples. I thought I'd start with the Atlantic Ocean which has lots of ripples. If you click to enlarge you might notice the dog walking on the sand which also has ripples.
Shelley Lake also has a lot of ripples. When the geese and ducks are swimming they are surrounded by ripples.
The shot below shows the shadows which are formed by the ripples in the lake.
The last shot shows how the ripples can almost look like ribbons, or that's what they look like to me.
For other participants, please visit the home of the hunt where participants post on Saturday.

These are all so wonderful. I love seeing photographs of water. That third one has such a magical look to it.

Hope you have a great weekend.

I did the ocean too but I thought I was stretching the theme. Glad that I was not. I didn't seem to have any of the other ripply ones like yours.


Happy weekend

It's warm here today so the ripples in your photos look very inviting.

Hi Carver --

Your photo-essay confirmed something for me: i.e., it's hard to tell where waves begin and ripples end (and vice versa)! BTW, really like how the third photo looks. :)

Nice ripples from both the ocean and the animals. I love watching them float across a pond and you captured them very well. Have a great weekend.

Cool ripples photos! The third one is my favorite because of the colors but I love them all! Great choices for this week's theme. The first two photos are not working though when I click on them.

Unknown said...

You have some very nice shots. I really like the colors in the first one but they're all great!

looking at ripples relaxes me whenever I'm in a water ride or simply adoring water's beauty
