Starting the year with symbols of peace and exploration
Two years ago on the first day of the new year I went to Santa Cruz, California, for sunset at the Twin Lakes State Beach. Late at night I went to the Santa Cruz Harbor. One yacht had a big illuminated peace sign, another was engulfed in lights in the shape of Starship Enterprise, the USS Enterprise of Star Trek. We need peaceful exploration, especially this year with uncertain political change in the USA.
I processed a balanced, a soft, and a paintery HDR photo from two RAW exposures, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.
