Early morning with the moon setting over Morro Rock. Shot at 7:22 am, 20d, 50mm f1.4 lens on tripod. No crop and very little PP, just a good shot of California's Historical Monument #821.

Becca Lady in Red More info | Dec 16, 2005 16:51 | #2 Very pretty shot! My only comment would be that it seems a little flat. I think if you play with curves a little bit and apply some USM it would really make it pop. But its really a lovely scene! Nice job! Becca

Dec 16, 2005 17:46 | #4 I agree with both posts it is flat and a tad underexposed. I made a few adjustments and sharpened it about 55% and added a +.15 exposer value. There's not a lot of color at sunrise with the sun to your back, especially in the shadows. I shot this at 1/60 f/22 ISO 200. If anyone has a better exposer setting I'm all eyes. Thanks.
