Waldo Street Pier Ruins
This shot was taken at the end of Waldo Street, Manitowoc Wisconsin. It’s a concrete pier ruins that juts out into Lake Michigan. You can see the Manitowoc pier head/light house in the back ground. I used a slow shutter speed to create the softness in the waves. Olympus E-M5 Mark III, 55mm Olympus M.Zuiko 40-150mm f/2.8 pro

Post processing notes:
I converted the color photo to B&W, cropped with tonal adjustments. Used the AI sharpening and noise reduction which I use on all my photos taken with my micro 4/3 camera. I masked out the sky to get more contrast in the clouds and separation from the water.Exif information:
