I posted this in the B&W forum, but the colors are such an important part of the image, I thought I would share here. Oyster beds and dock posts. There just happened to be a sodium vapor lamp to my left that help illuminate the foreground.

Very nice, Dale. Beautiful mix of rich colors! The lamp illumination works perfectly.

Thanks Dave. The sodium lamp added a nice hue to the foreground I thought. I know photographer Frank Relle from New Orleans uses sodium lamps in some of his beautiful waterscapes. I was just lucky there happened to be one right there.

Thanks Dan, yes, Florida sunsets can be unreal at times.

You got me wondering too if I went overboard with saturation, so I went back to see what edits I made to the raw file. Images like this, I try to make as real as I remember them. I was surprised I actually reduced saturation on this a touch, although I did add some vibrance. FYI here is the unedited image and the saturation data. A large increase in shadow brightness was required due to the extreme dynamic range.

Cheers
