p.1 #1 · Seascape Sunrise Explosion


I'm good at titles! Not. Looking for some feedback on this one, I don't think it's QUITE finished but I'm pretty happy with the direction.. looking for second (or third, or fourth?) set of eyes. This was shot this morning, it went nuts. Super bright colors.

Hey Sunny, thanks for the comments! Sorry, do you mean the horizon looks crooked? It's definitely straight, look at the line below the hills in the distance. Maybe it's just the rocks that give it that look?

Very Nice. Pulpit Point, Cape Schanck?

I haven't seen this angle for sunrise before.
Looks great. I find the black rocks down there suck soo much light out of photo's as they are very coarse. I usually would only use them if using black and white, or if the small waterfall you have in the foreground had more water flowing through it.

Thanks John Yes it is. It's definitely a tough location to shoot. The best angles are usually had at mid tide and you're having to dodge huge waves coming in or you can get swept out if not careful. I would have liked a little more water coming through that little fall, but oh well!

Beautiful capture! Amazing color palette you have captured. The low clouds really add to the depthness of the image.

Hey Matthew,

What a cool shot! I really like the color and all that is going on in this, water movement, clouds, etc...

Hi Hernan, this is in Australia. Cape Schanck in Victoria to be exact.

Now looking on a calibrated monitor the light on those rocks looks much better than when I first looked.

You mention huge waves, I've spent quite a bit of time shooting a bit further around to the west from where you've taken this, and had monsters rise up from no where, I've had to brace myself with my camera above my head as waves crash at waist height. One of those Oh SH$T moments.

Amazing place, there are so many good shots down there.

Sick shot dude. That colour is hard to beat. I must have missed this on your 500px. The only issue for me is the composition isnt the strongest compared to some of your other work, but it is still nice. The rock that comes up at the right edge seems a bit odd, and the rest of the foreground does take up a lot of real estate. To bad that little falls wasnt larger. I think that would void any issues I have with the comp. Why didn't you bring a water bucket?!
