Took a walk along the beach with Yolly and after our walk took some quick photos. I was quick and got setup fast so I guess I am getting better at this. Forgot to set the WB though...have to remember to check the settings before I start shooting. Not an overly dramatic sunset but I liked the quiet sky colours on this shoot. Aside from adjusting shadows and highlights pretty much all there was in PP. Or maybe I ran some tonal contrast...

twilight time
I almost, always pack up my gear once the sun goes down forgetting that some of the best images can be captured when the sun is below the horizon. The combination of ambient and artificial light can make for some interesting images.

Spanish Banks sunset
I am lost. I don't know what I'm doing here. Mind you it was one of those improvise days. I forgot the 17-35mm lens and had to do with a 20mm. That needed a 62mm-77mm stepup ring. Then I stuck a Vari-ND filter and the GND filter setup. That had a lot of vignetting which I had to crop out during post processing. I also added some more post processing and while it may look Ok I find it to have that overprocessed look that I dislike.

shooting Lynn Canyon
I have been here a few times and getting good compositions have always been a problem. The colourless rocks just do not make for interesting images. But difficult conditions lead to great learning experiences. It finally came to me that I had to minimize the rocks in the photos and introduce more colours into the overall composition.Now have to go back and do thisagain.
