Nothing wrong about the exposure and contrast with this shot. I just did a colour correction of the blue cast...I've added mostly yellow, a touch of red and green. I most admit that I went a tad to far with the yellow...)))
Not an easy place under the blazing sun , with my bald head to capture the shot(^_^). But here I could not care less. I just enjoyed the moment with a great friend, that I finally met after five years sharing on line. Thanks to TL for another great relationship..
And Thanks to Kevin for his creativity and honesty. Always appreciated.
But less cropped,
You can see more the cavity in the rock the sea-urchin is living in. In fact it was trapped under the rock, since the rock was too heavy to be moved by this little creature.
I used Adobe Elements to add a levels adjustment layer adjusting the midtones to 1.70 to try and make the midtones a little lighter and reveal more detail in the water and hull of the boats.
It might be a bit overdone but it should illustrate my point :)
I cloned one stop sign. Used a similar composition as yesterday . Instead of steel today I used the trees to frame the shot.(^_^)
