That's a lovely image - colour and composition are spot on.

Posted: Tue Aug 04, 2009 3:57 pmI agree with the others, this is a beautiful shot and would make a great poster. I, too, would like to know how you took it.
I assume it is a sunrise as Point Arkwright is on the east coast.

Shot was taken last year and had a strong blue cast and wasn't one of my favourites after processing and saving as a tiff at the time. The usual sunrise set up with reverse ND grad and C-pol., f/16, slow shutter speed etc. But I used auto iso and this gave it a strong blue cast. I can't remember how I processed it last year but , you know , the usual stuff.
I opened the tiff recently and removed the colour cast using black, white and grey points and liked what I saw. So I played a little with some selective hue and vibrancy but this was quite subtle. The original colours were quite saturated as I had underexposed a little. It's not a HDR as best I can remember and I'm guessing part of the look may have occurred accidentally because of the big swing from the heavy blue cast in the original raw and migrating that to correct the colours which is my latest learning curve.
Hope this helps guys.
