Reprocessed a lot closer to the original RAW file. One of my first ever submissions, it's scary to think how much my life has changed from the time I took this photo when I was still just doing a part time photography course to get the year by.

This is amazing! Absolutely impeccable masking you have here! I've only started using masking recently. Question: Are you actually standing in the water?

haha young photographer? I'm 2 years younger than you are. Spend a lot of time in nature, you live in Colorado, make the best use of it. Try to shoot at least 2 sunsets a week and make some effort to be in colorado's great outdoor scenery

Umm..I'm blown away. This is spectacular. I wish I knew how to do something so amazing as that. I mean I thought I was good with CS3 but damn...not when I look at that in comparison. Goes to show how much I need to learn.

Amazing work my friend!

dijitali In reply to ??? [2008-08-28 01:01:00 +0000 UTC]

Great shot. Out of interest, how did you work out what length exposure to use? Was it a lucky guess or did you do a couple of shorter/longer ones first and adjust based on those?

By the way, I saw it on this site: [link] and recognised it immediately as one of yours. Thought you might want to know, seeing as you ask people not to use your images on their own blogs.

Absolutely amazing! It's fascinating how the left looks like it's night, and the right looks like it's in the morning or evening. The contrast is fantastic.
