Photographer’s Note

Another one in the series of Neil Island sunset shots.

I hope there's enough variety in the quality to save me boring everyone to death...

4x images from one RAW combined.

Hi Matthew,
I love the approach to this sunset shot!
The foreground although a bit dark there's the reflection of the reddish lighting of the sitting sun.
The sky is a palette of marvelous colors!
All in all a pleasing and desirable presentation!
Great shot. Regards.

Hello Matthew,

Very nice sunset!! Love it. The colours are great, even in the reflection. It could have been a tad lighter in the darker parts. Of the big rock, you don't see the difference between the shape and the shadow. That is a bit of a pity, but it still is a great sunset!!
Thanks for sharing!

Dennis

You hit the sweet spot as far as exposure time on this one. The reflections are sooooo relaxing. I also like how the linear clouds blend right in with the horizon. Truly a knock-out shot and I can stare at this all day.

Interesting shot Matthew. It's a new take on the "beach sunset." And it sounds like you did a bit of creative post-processing too. I really like this shot. Well done.
