Kilve Sunset 2
Well its raining yet again & I've taken been able to take a grand total of 0 shots this weekend. I been struggling for a long time with processing colour shots, especially when there is a large dynamic range. I've been using Nikon NX2 for the last 6 months to convert my RAW images & I'm finally becoming happier with my colour results. I've been hunting through my photo store looking for old shots that I can reprocess through NX2. This is a shot I took back in Sept 2008 at Kilve. In the original image I had to RAW process the image twice, once for the sky & once for the foreground. I then merged the two in photoshop & still didnt get a great result compared to the stunning sunset I had seen. Now using NX2 I am able to process the image in one go & get a result which is much more faithful to the original scene.

Last Sunday I went to Durdle Door again, this time with Antony Spencer, Wiffsmiff23, Mike-DT6 & bumped into Nick Holland. We were sat around on the cliff top getting blown silly by the wind wondering why we had got out of bed when suddenly all this colour appeared. I'm pleased to have got this as I didn't think I had managed to capture anything of use. This is definitely a patented Mr.Spencer view but I got dispensation to take a shot. I could have done better on the composition front though.

I was stood pondering over this building when this chap came along with his dog & sat down, mobile focal point.

Im afraid I wasn't being very creative on Sunday morning so I ended up taking one of the cliché shots of Durdle Door. It just had to be done I guess.
