Photographing the sea during the day is also possible even though the harsh light can make the shooting conditions much more challenging. Try to photograph seascapes during overcast days, and use lens filters to add a dreamy and ethereal atmosphere to your images by smoothing the texture of the water and capturing the motion of the clouds. Night coastal photography can be quite daunting. Standing in the water in the middle of the night with the continuous roaring surf is not for everyone, but photographing the sea at night time can be an otherworldly experience. Photographing the beach with a starry sky or the soft moonlight bathing the coastline is something that leaves you in complete awe.
