Good point @jhg. I agree. More obvious to me today than late last night. It definitely has that HS film look, even though that wasn't my goal. In fact, I used Kodak Panatomic-X as a film simulation, which didn't really add any grain. It's just noisy from maybe a 25% crop, ISO 1600 and my forcing down the brightness level of the sky.
I arrived too late and the sun had already set; there wasn't that much light. Wind was really blowing and before I had a chance to grab my tripod, these two guys ran straight down the bluff (screaming all the way), which is covered with ice plant instead of taking the long, still steeply graded ramp. Thought for sure they were headed for a serious face plant. They were only visible against the white water for about ten seconds when they turned around and ran back (youth, great stuff). Fun to capture the truly fleeting moments!
Think I'll try some noise reduction on the sky and see how that looks. Thanks for the C&C!
