Swirling Waters

Swirling Waters by eatzycath.
This was taken last year during my trip to Jiuzhaigou Valley, SIchuan. Didn't notice this shot until I was browsing through my archives this evening.
An experiment in slow shutter speed without a tripod, with the swirling whitecaps creating the paintbrush effect of an oil painting.
