Thought this might go down better here as its all ALenses....
Went back to the beach where it all began last night to find that the place has completely changed. A foot and a half of sand has shifted its way up completely redirecting a stream to make a sharp right. All my favourite rocks are now totally buried in sand. It was a complete let down and then a raging success.
These images are taken in a 1DsIII, the first one with a Contax 35-70, the second with a Nikon 14-24, both adapted lenses and simply the best combination I have ever used at the coast. Both at f16. Both images are exposure blended, not only because I dont use grads, but because an image like this would be impossible to render using one.
