[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This was taken at Byron Bay looking into the setting sun. I was attracted to the metallic look of the light reflecting from this small lagoon on Clarke's Beach.
When I was a young man Byron Bay was a sleepy little town known only to surfers and hippies - now it's a destination for international travellers. I shouldn't be surprised - it's such a beautiful place and the secret has been out for some years.
I adjusted levels for the sky and foreground separately, added a little contrast and sharpened.

Hi Terry,
A well composed scene. I do like the relatively low pov, the lead-in provided by the rippled water. There is good sharpness and depth. The silvery blues and the hint of orange from the setting sun complete the scene for me. Good work.

Hi Terry,
These are lovely colours.
I think reflection of the sky
in the rippled water gives
a great effect.
Regards.

Breathtaking! This has got to be one of your best Terry! The water ripples and reflections are just perfect! Love your processing. Gorgeous soft blues and yellow! Can't ask for more than this!

Hi Terry,
the water looks like mercury and those clouds are quite special - the PP work is also VG, very natural looking
cheers
