Hi All

I'm not about much these days due to work and family commitments, however I always have a quick peek from time to time to check out the galleries and a few old friends latest works.

This one is from a recent family holiday in Cornwall, shot at around 10pm.
It was'nt a photography holiday as such but I did manage to get out a couple of times for my favourite coastal low light shots, the rest are standard holidays photos. I'll try and get a few uploaded over the comming days/weeks, for now though, any comments good or bad will be gratefully recieved.

PP Convert from RAW, resized, cleaned a few dust spots, boosted saturation +14%, resharpened and save for web.

Hi Dean,
excellent shot with great DoF and colours, the islands form a nice silhouette against the setting sun and the colours and textures in the FG are VG

Hi Dean,
A marvelous seascape adorned with a beautiful sunset cast!
An adequate shutter speed of 1 sec to produce such a fabulous movement in the sea and a proper aperture of f/22 to obtain an ample DOF is perfect focusing.
A wonderful composition comencing from this splendid beach and arriving to a fantastic sky.
Great capture!
Well done,

Francis Xavier

It's a relieve to see such a wonderful picture here on TL. I'm quite happy to see this picture, ful of colour great composition. Outstanding quality! The slow shutter speed is perfect creating the soft focus of the sea and the little waves. Great image Dean!

Hello Dean
Stunning shot !
Great diagonal composition, amazing colors, very clear and sharp, perfect exposure and DOF. It's a magic and peaceful nook of the planet.

Killer shot! You get an award for this! The color, the marvelous processing is what grabs me here! I love that light on the water, just amazing. The motion of the water on the sand just blows me away! one of your best!

Hello Dean,
A longer exposure may have better improved the waterline, but overall the image is very beautiful and I love the rocky coastline the best.
Excellent work...
Steve

Hello Dean
U've a beautiful gallery! I loved this one, especially the color temperature of light! very effective use of long shutter!
IMO only, how if u changed a little POV towards right (avoiding the left giant half hill in ur frame)? more would be the colors :)

TFS
Stay safe
Cheers

I love the use of the slow shutter in shots like this, and the way water is given an almost fog-like texture with its flow.
