My first post to FM, so thanks for allowing me to share. This is an oldie from 2011 I've just recently processed. Pacific Grove, CA is one of the few places on the West Coast that you can actually shoot sunrise across the water looking east (looking across Monterey Bay). Part of my New Year's resolution of sorts is to be a little more active within various photographic communities, so hopefully I will have time to comment and share moving forward. Thanks in advance for any C&C.

Hi Jared. Nice shot. I know this spot. It's on my list. You can also do the same in parts of Santa Cruz. Especially this time of year.

Very nice shot. I think the sky, colors and composition are perfect. I think the only change I would make would be to brighten up the foreground some, just to help emphasize the water movement and texture. Otherwise I think the low-key foreground still works for me.

Hi Jared,

Welcome to FM Landscape!

You have found the rare west coast location! There are not many places here on the west coast where one can shoot across the water for a sunrise. Nice color and clouds, a very nice shot.

Thanks for the comments and warm welcome.

I don't remember, it was 2011!!! I don't even remember what I had for lunch today. I remember rolling through a few stop signs and running down to this beach in a panic, so I don't think I had time to use a grad, but I could be wrong

I really like the fact that the foreground in this is 'underexposed'. we get a lot of exposure blended shots round here which I am a fan of but in this case I think brightening the foreground would have harmed the image. I feel like the image could do with a slight counter clockwise rotation to get the horizon straight

Hi Jared,
Welcome to FM.

I really like the mood you captured. It's great that you kept the dark shadows making it very realistic.
All the best,
Fred
