The day I took this, I did this:

 

1. Got my time all wrong and raced the 90mins to "my local beach" to beat the sunset.

2. Walked about 15mins up and down scoping things out, before I settled on this scene.

3. Setup camera on tripod etc and took 6 shots at various exposures and angles.

4. Storm came in and I had to leg it to some shelter before the camera got completely drenched.

5. Waited 45mins for the rain to ease up.

6. It didn't. The sun went down. Gave up. Drove home.

 

4.5hr excursion... 6 shots... ugh...

 

Processing this really makes me realize how badly I need my monitor calibrated! As usual, it looks just right on my monitor but the whites have a blue tinge to them on my wife's laptop and, to a lesser extent, on my work monitor. None of these are calibrated of course so who knows what's right and who knows how this will look on your screen. My OCD is really kicking into overdrive knowing that it doesn't look just right. I think I know what I want for Christmas.

 

I'm liking this one better large on white.
