Very effective HDR, Tim. First thing that struck me, though, is the small patch of sky top right. Just a small niggle, but i'd prefer it if that was cropped or cloned out. Sorry!

Aside from that minor point, the HDR effect has been done so well that I would never have guessed. Everything blends so well - this is a strong shot with a lot of quality. Some HDRs go over the top - this, to me, is spot on.

Wow... Lovely colors Tim!
Usually I'm not a big fan of HDR images, because of the somewhat strange light and colors, but here it's not the case. Colors and light are absolutely great.
Probably because this is of only 2 images....

Cheers,
Anneke

Hi Tim,

Nicely done with just 2 images . . are these images from different extreme exposure (+3 and -3), or just different one stop?
I like the composition by hiding the sun but show the light clearly . .

Tfs,
Tjutjut

Hi Tim,

A very natural HDR image, lovely foreground contrasts, I can smell that ozone.

I love the dark tones in this image and how detailed the water is. The oranges and blues work so well together. Fantastic and unique image.

Beautiful work Tim. I love the abstract design of the sand.
the reflection and water in the foreground really make this for me.
Superb light and color captured.
Well done.
