rock with waves

Impressive. Nice composition ?
Have the same questioning as McLoudSpark...
How long exposure and, I guess, with a polarizing
filter ?
 
His signature says he has the PolarPro Cinema series of filters. So yeah, probably used the ND16 here.
Without a clear answer from the maker, I am guessing he used a technique called "mean stacking" in photoshop. For this you need several pictures taken of the same scene. In Photoshop you stack them and using one of the stacking options, Photoshop will create an "average" image. This technique mimics a long exposure, but it is fundamentally not the same. If you look closely at the image, you will see "bands" of waves, not a continuous flow. This is what you get when you take (I am guessing) three pictures in rapid succession and stack them.
This is not meant as critique by the way, I use this technique myself as I do not have ND-filters. And with a drone, it is almost impossible to hold the camera still for more than half a second. Anything longer than that will cause everything to blur in the image.
But I might be wrong. The truth is with the maker of the photograph :)
