I love the way the land and the sea are divided by the sky and it’s reflection – fantastic composition. The way the sun is also heading away from land adds emphasis to the change from daylight to night .Beautiful Image.
What an amazing image! As well as what has already been said, can I point out the beautiful colours and the lines leading into the distance beyond the sunset.
Hey John, I just visited your HDR blog, and I’m fascinated to find that this shot was a 3 shot HDR.
“Both photos were 3 shot HDR, polariser, ND4 and half grad used. Processed using Photomatix and Photoshop.”
I have a Sigma 10-20mm and a Hoya Pro1-Digital polarizer, but I’m really interested in purchasing a set of NDs and GNDs. May I know what lens are you using, and how do you attach your ND4 and half grad? Do you use a filter holder or screw ons? Thanks heaps mate.
Keegan, I use a cokin filter holder, unfortunately, it vignettes, the X series would be better, but I’m planning on buying a Lee filter system, a bit pricey, but better quality I feel
It is work like this that makes me think I need to quit photography and take up house painting. This is beautiful beyond my ability to express it in words.
I saw this and my mind went WOW…and then words dropped away to just feelings of awe, joy and wonder…l have lots of questions on HOW, but the lasting impression is how it takes my breath away. Thank you!
