Hi everyone! So today I went to the beach by myself and got completely carried away, shooting practically everything I saw. I used both of my lens's, the kit lens and my telephoto. All of the pictures were edited using either View NX 2 or the Color Sync Utility.
I shot most of the shells and small rocks up close to capture the small details that make up the beautiful big picture that is the beach. I got there around 2pm and the light was absolutely perfect. The shots of the spray took a long time to achieve; at times it almost felt like I was shooting blindly.
So here is the final product...
In the photo above, I chose to use the selective color setting. I'm still getting used to choosing which color I want to focus on, so for now I leave it on the default.
While the photo above is a bit blown out, I chose to include it anyway. To me, it looks less like oceanic spray and more like a picture of rocks with white paint splashed across it. I took this picture- yelled "YES", turned off my camera, and left. It may not be perfect, but it's my favorite shot of the day.
Wonderful, Kelly... you have pulled me in dramatically to your very personal encounter with the shapes and light you found on your outing... Looks like you had a great time there... Well done!
ReplyDeleteWow, I have to say I love these shots and how you captured its essence.

ReplyDeleteI really really really like your pictures including the last one. I see what you see in the picture. I think you did an incredible job filling the frame and capturing the light, colors and angles in each of them. You did a really good job. I enjoyed your pictures very much Kelly.
