Here's a new photo I took two weeks ago while spending the weekend camping on Rialto Beach in Olympic National Park. I'd love to get your thoughts on this one. Thanks!

I really like it. The long exposure clouds, thin yellow sunset, foreground structure.

Thanks, David! I'm glad you like the clouds. I took several exposures at different speeds, and as it got darker after this one, I was able to capture a few that were a minute or two long (using a 3-stop ND, if I recall correctly), really smoothing out the clouds. However, in the end, I decided to go with this 10-second exposure, which has some movement in the clouds, but retains some texture in the sky. This one also has the added benefit of some additional color in the sky and better definition in the foreground water movement.

Hey Kris,

I like your choice of this image. The added color in the clouds is something I noticed and liked about this one. I like how you have the water composed in the foreground also.

Thanks, Jim! The foreground is what drew me to the location, and then the clouds rolled in after that. It wasn't the spectacular sunset I had hoped for, but I was happy to get some color.
