Wonderful shot, I love the sudden pop of color in the clouds on the right!

Thanks Evan. It was your shots that inspired me to hunt this rock pool out near the baths at Newcastle.
The sunset was one of the best I have seen in a long time.

Thank you Mark
Robert Brindley
Have I seen this image without the HDR? Your normally constrained use of the phenomenon may have taken a little vacation,,,LOL but the colours in the sky and their reflection in the water are a visual delight without anything else.
Andrew Murrell replied
This time I did play with HDR more than usual. I found my usual HDR technique produced an image that was a little flat. I had a play and came up with this. The correct exposure version is also in the portfolio and as an image I perfer it as I still am not a fan of HDR, even my own. Thanks Robert

Richard Cubitt
Love these type of photos….just need to learn how to do them now!!! Well Done
Andrew Murrell replied
Thanks for the comment Richard. As to doing HDR get the Photomatix download and have a play. it is full function but leaves a watermark. if you like it you can purchase the code and remove the watermark.

I’m usually not much of a fan of HDR work, but there’s something very compelling and dramatic about this picture that appeals to me. I think it may be the reflections in the water. Great work!

It is well worth the trial. you can download the program from here
http://www.hdrsoft.com/download.html
it is a full working trial and will put a watermark on the image. whe you pay it will remove the watermark from the image. That way you can play and see.
