I love the way water sparkles.

Capturing an image of sparkling water full of dazzling specular highlights is not as simple as pointing the camera at it! This will almost never capture the feel because, well a captured image does no sparkle!
So to make that sparkle look good I needed a model and this cormorant was more than happy to oblige as the late sun dazzled the choppy water.
