![]() 60 Seconds somewhere on the Oregon coastline.... I created a tone mapped (HDR) layer that is providing added detail only to the sea stack. Using HDR to enhance the photo a little, but leaving everything else natural..... well as natural as possible for a 60 second exposure. Thanks for looking and hope all FM'ers have an awesome 4th of July, wherever you are! |

Interesting effects in this one - and the end result works quite nicely. |

I like the sky!... The foreground (sea stack) is a little too perfect for my taste, but that sky makes this a real beauty. |

The tilted horizon jumped at me, but I still love it. Love the dichotomy of sharp stack and blurred sky. Very cool work, John. |

Interesting concept here. I would say you pulled it off pretty darn nicely, the sky is just awesome. |

Cool beans John. I think the shot is particularly effective with the cloud movement. |

Really nicely done. The HDR is subtle (in my opinion) and well executed. I actually wouldn't lighten the foreground water, it provides a darker toned area to add contrast. My problem with many HDR images, is that the photographer creates a very flat (low contrast) image by trying to pull shadow detail out of every dark area. Blacks add punch to photographs, and depth. |
