It was a varying sunny and cloudy day. If it is sunny, there is too much dust in the air and the images are not clear but rather foggy.Equipment

I had already seen beautiful pictures of the opal coast and wanted also take some pictures over there. You will find more bunkers from World War II and wooden piles on the beaches. On a clear day you can see over the canal the white cliffs of Dover.Editing
I just made an adjustment of the white balance, increased the contrast and made the green color more intense.In my camera bag

For this image, I had a shutter speed of 15 seconds by the use of a neutral density filter. Make sure your tripod stands firmly so that there is no movement. I suggest the focus manually. ISO: 100 F: 11 With a little practice anyone can create such images. For the use of neutral density filters, there is sufficient information to be found on the internet. Good luck.
