I particularly like like the rock stacking in the first Muir Beach. You have captured the mood. Too bad some of the dark area seems a bit blocked. But, maybe it's the screen. Thanks, I actually dropped the exposure almost a stop in post so it looked like dawn, not a white sky, and a little more saturated. At full size, you will see some crazy orange and purple star fish I hadn't noticed in real life g http://www.flickr.com/photos/edgehil...60580/sizes/o/ Ah! I see now why you dropped the exposure. The building in the background is distracting. Could some cloning help? There aren't any buildings big enough to see; between the large rocks is Point Bonita headlands 4 miles away and Mt Davidson or Twin Peaks in San Francisco 10 miles away with a radio tower - lights from the Sunset District / Ocean Beach SF to the right of the rocks. Maybe San Bruno Mt 15 miles away. What is that bright area? Residential neighborhood street lights in the Outer Sunset district near Ocean Beach, San Francisco, 8.5 miles away. It's out of focus because I'm at f/4 to keep the ISO relatively low at 800. 40mm FX focused on the rocks, 30 second exposure is max without a wired remote which I didn't have in the bag. |

OK. but in any event, to my eyes the bright area detracts from a beautiful scene. Unless of course you intended to make a statement such as: all beauty must come to an end. -- Peter |
