    Haven't posted a seascape for a while.....been to this place a few times and this time I was happy with the outcomes.

    No PP on this shot, no HDR
    I like the cropped version better but the idea was to show you how the unprocessed picture looks like

    Technique:
    Filter: SinghRay reverse Grad hard step 3 f-stop to capture greater detail in the foreground

    Available on RedBubble

    Have a great weekend everyone...

      Awesome Photo - Like the Cropped Version more, but both are magnificent

      Beautiful light off the water in the foreground, great shot! I prefer the crop version.

      the details and the colours are well worth the wait .. both versions are winners .. leaning towards the cropped one though .. everything is better exposed thats why i think ..

      Once again you've outdone yourself. Just phenomenal. I think I prefer the cropped version; the wide-screen aspect seems to just suit the scene better. Excellent work!

      Great composition Garry. Its amazing how a simple crop can transform an image from great to an absolute stunner.
      Beautiful lighting, love the water movement.

    16. Jennifer Renee (49 months ago | reply)

      not to join ban wagons or anything, but yea the cropped version is a better comp... more suited to show the movement of the water and showcases the sky better ....
      well done Garry... are those sand bags?

    17. Garry - www.visionandimagination.com (49 months ago | reply)

      Agree Jennifer, love the cropped better.
      Yes, they are huge sandbags

    21. Jennifer Renee (49 months ago | reply)

      hee hee. sandbags...love the detail in the larger version... nice camera work

    22. R Scott Photography (49 months ago | reply)

      You can see how the processing brought out the extra punch and the nice purples.

      The cropped version is much nicer I agree.

      Thanks for the insight on how you work your magic.

      Cheers

      Both versions are awesome. i think i like the cropped version a little better. the slightly punchier colours really grab the eye. super!
