2 from tonight's sunset

Digital Matt · Sep 4, 2006

It's been so long since I've seen a sunset. I was so glad I went tonight. I needed a break, and a chance to take some photos again, for me.

Let me know what you think

If that's Hell's Horizon, then I'm going straight to hell and not stopping on the way.

Beautiful.

good stuff matt, these are great..... is this with a 4x ND or maybe a few stacked?.... great exposure and processing :thumbsup:

AMAZING, It's allways a dream to shoot such a bright sunset as so... but living on the Gold Coast its a rare site to see one as stunning as that.

Thanks everyone

No filters used here. I was able to get around 1 sec exposures at f/22. I do have a 4x ND but I forgot it

No painting with light. I processed 2 versions of the raw file, with one version having a bit of exposure comp and lower contrast, for the foreground and driftwood. I had fired my flash for bit of punch in the foreground as well.
