Verynice frame on that mirror too.

Makes me want to get my boots wet and wander up the path to see what’s there.

I’m curious about your higher shutter speed for bright conditions than less bright (cloudy ones).

I understand that. It seems that so many of the landscapes I see find me behind the wheel of a car without any reasonable place to park my sedan to see if I can get the image.

Well, I can’t resist saying the obvious: that sort of distracted driving can have lethal consequences for the driver too.

Good images but at least stop and even if you can’t spend time to get out.

Thank you. Mood is nearly always what I’m looking for. Another forum, long since defunct, folks used to say my beaches at sunrise said “lonely.” I’ve always preferred solitude or, as @tersha said, calming.

I had to remove one bright spot, just Northwest of the leaf. Left 2 more as they weren’t as close and distracting to me.

Thanks. I have dozens of images from this spot over many years showing various portions of this pool.

Well, I can’t see it. Not sure why.

Really like the full throated singing.

I doubt that a slow shutter speed would have worked from the ship as it moved by. I often do a “doh” when reviewing my images once I get home as well.

I see a crouching creature, ready to pounce. I do very much like it. I might have wished for slightly more water in the foreground. I also might have found a slow shutter speed to smooth out the minor ripples in the water appealing.

Or, maybe not. My ideas often fail to deliver what I was sure of before I actually did them.

Picture didn’t load.

Thanks for the feedback, @paul-3 @robertapple @admin-2. Sorry for the delay. I wanted to give plenty of time for comment and critique before responding.

Paul, I nearly always used an ND grad on camera for my sunrise beach images. I have gone through the originals. The steps in processing aren’t there (didn’t migrate all the information from one…[Read more]
