Rob,

Great set, I really like #2. The intense colors of the sunset is sweet but I what I like most is the patterns in the sand and the glittering rocks.

Hey Rob,

#3 and 5 are my favorites here. But #1 and 2 are too saturated, I think you should pull the colors down a bit in both. They look to be colorful without having to push the colors in them.

5 is beautiful! How much of those stars were you able to see with your eyes when you were there?

Thanks Jim, 1 is pretty much as it came from the raw with a slight WB adjust, crazy sunrise everyone here commented on it, even made the press. 2 is played with (levels).

Some but not that much!? Camera captures a lot more , but its shot in one of the top dark sky sites in the world. You just have to get away from light pollution and let your eyes adjust. For info it is 14ish shots 24mm f3.5 ISO 6400.

Hey Rob!
Beautiful light you got there...

I would go with 2, and 5, others look little over, sometimes even the natural colors get overwhelming, i would reduce the sat a little (usually the opposite action required :-))
I like the first, but the cut off rocks on the right ruin it for me...

I disagree. I think the colour looks amazing. I have shot many sunsets where I have had to pull saturation down. These would look fantastic on a wall. They NEED to be in print.

#2 on metallic would be off the charts.

Hi Doug,

They are shot on a 6d ISO 6400 f3.5 30 seconds, both stitches of 14-16 frames with the 24mm tse mk2, using a gigapan epic pro.

Usually processed to tiff in acr then into pt gui to stitch.

Very nice set here, Rob. Hard to pick a favorite. I'm enjoying them all for their own uniqueness. Excellent job!
