Separation

Photographed by double H

Santa Monica Beach, California

Nikon F, 50mm f/1.4

Description
I took this from the pier, pointing camera directly down. The wave was moving from right to left, and tried to shoot the exact moment where the wave takes half of the frame. I sharpened the image so that water splash looks more coming up and also dodged a lot on half and burned a lot on other half, to make division, or separation more distinguishable. I switched to B&W to emphasize the difference of light between those two sides.
