Northwest Golden Beach Sunset

Went back and revisited a few shots taken from Washington Park beach near Anacortes. Canon 1Ds2 and 17-40mm

Would you be willing to share the EXIF data on those? What PP did you use?

Incredible images.

Shot #1 - Is this multiple images masked? Just wondering how the sky is exposed and the log too. Cheers!

Beautiful! Really like that last one, especially.

They could all be in a calendar! Beautiful!!!

I really like the unique angle you took of the first two pictures; I prefer the first one over the second (I just think the twisted wood is more interesting than the whole log) and the last shot is really beautiful too. Great job!

Solid set! Love the golden highlights on everything. The last one especially!

The exif on the beach shots was nothing too surprising.
iso 100
f8
1/250sec

I sometimes hand blend these by taking one raw file and duplicating it. I then use one at the in camera exposure and one darker. This can be done in PS, lightroom enfuse or photomatix. Or shoot brackets and then use all three, +3, 0 -3

Very nice set of images; great composition. However, to my eyes, they appear to be a tad over sharpened. What do you think?
