contrasts of the coast

[vulkan75]

Well time is running out so I guess one of my Jan seascapes will have to do.

Taken at Rhossili Gower

Take your pick from a mulitude of contrasts.

Dry and Wet
Warm and cold
solid and liquid
sky and earth
etc etc etc

Cracking entry, and plenty there to make it on theme to me...

Love the leading lines, and a great sky also.

Stunning shot. I like the Bauhaus interpretation of contrasts. Doesn't look very warm though!

This is another lovely shot Alex. Certainly great contrast between the sky and water. Nice one.

Wow. Breathtaking.

Took a look at your Flickr / Darkr and was very impressed with the set.

Without entering into a tutorial would you mind, briefly, explaining how you achieved the vivid colours please?

Thanks very much....basically you need an interesting sky 10 mins before or after sunset or sunrise...then underexpose the sky and you'll be pleasantly surprised what colours are actually there subtlely hidden from view...I took the sky down by means of GND filters.

Thank you

Basically ensure you get a slow shutter speed this will be determined by the time of day and F number...see above..This makes the water milky like so. Then stop down the sky by means of GND filters or bracket your shots and blend the exposures in Ps.

hopefully thats helpful in a nutshell
