Rough Crossing


Rough Crossing, originally uploaded by Tony DeSantis Photography.
This is another shot taken from the week. Once again the sky was very flat. So I used way more foreground with the rocks and water leading the photo in. All is not lost any day down the beach watching the sunset is a good day!

This is another Black Card Technique:  See previous post for how to go about this type of technique.

I thought the photo lacked and needed some more something so I used a Psuedo HDR processing with a single exposure just to get more texture out of the rocks and show movement in the water.  This gave me a better look to my foreground that I needed.

The Shot:
Single Exposure, F/27, ISO 100, 15 second exposure, 10-20mm Sigma Lens @ 20mm

Post Processing:
-ACR-Slight adjustments to Fill Light, Black, Clarity

CS-5:
-Photomatix-Single exposure, psuedo HDR
-Adjustment Layer-Curves for overall contrast
-Topaz Adjust-Overall Color adjustment
-Adjustment Layer-Hue/Sat-Orange saturation
-Cropped and straightened
-High Pass Sharpening
-Framed and sized for posting
