Goat Island

Newport, Rhode Island

 

A view of the northern end of Goat Island in Narragansett Bay, occupied by Gurney’s Newport Resort & Marina and the adjacent Newport Harbor Light. This small island is connected to Newport proper via a causeway bridge, visible behind the dock in the upper left, from where this picture of the Newport Bridge was taken a while back. The island also has quite a bit of naval history going back before the Revolutionary War.

 

No, the seaweed isn't actually that color. I took some artistic liberty with the "Indian Summer" filter in Nik Collection's Color Efex Pro because I thought it looked cool, and reality isn't all it's cracked up to be. After wall, what did I have to lose? ;-)

 

Lens: 24mm tilt-shift, shifted down about halfway

Filters: landscape polarizer, 2-stop soft-edge GND, 10-stop ND
