The Changing Faces of Sunrise

Awoke to some heavy rain this morning and was due to take a group out to Point Cartwright for a sunrise shoot. Thought I better turn up just in case.

Ended up with some varying conditions over the space of an hour and ended up getting a bit wet.

Here's a few.

Comments welcome

For me, the third of these images is my favourite. The diagonal band of blue water works really well compositionally, I like the detail in the rocks and the sky / sun feels *right* to me. I find the WB a bit too cold in the first and last and too warm in the second.

Certainly the set makes it seem worthwhile getting up so early :)

Woahh.. seriously jealous... over the time span of an hour with such a variety of tones and contrast. Very impressive by how you've handled the exposure on these too. :up:


Great work! Favourite one is the second one.

Expertly done Bob. Are you still only using the single reverse ND grad filter? Are these single exposures?

All these shot with 3 stop reverse NDG.

I also Bracket the images as an extra measure.

1,2 & 4 are single shots whereas 3 has some merged elements from the bracketed set.
