Another painting I did following E. John Robinson's DVD training set. His methods to describe color and light are outstanding. 30x20 oil on canvas. Photo by Chris Schobert.

The Breakers is a Vanderbilt mansion located on Ochre Point Avenue, Newport, Rhode Island, United States on the Atlantic Ocean. It is a National Historic Landmark, a contributing property to the Bellevue Avenue Historic District, and is owned and operated by the Preservation Society of Newport County.
The Breakers was built as the Newport summer home of Cornelius Vanderbilt II, a member of the wealthy United States Vanderbilt family. Designed by renowned architect Richard Morris Hunt and with interior decoration by Jules Allard and Sons and Ogden Codman, Jr., the 70-room mansion boasts approximately 65,000 sq ft (6,000 m2). of living space. The home was constructed between 1893 and 1895 at a cost of more than $7 million (approximately $150 million in today's dollars adjusted for inflation). The Ochre Point Avenue entrance is marked by sculpted iron gates and 30-foot (9.1 m) high walkway gates are part of a 12-foot-high limestone and iron fence that borders the property on all but the ocean side. The 250' x 120' dimensions of the five-story mansion are aligned symmetrically around a central Great Hall.
Part of a 13-acre (53,000 m²) estate on the seagirt cliffs of Newport, it sits in a commanding position that faces east overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.

This was taken on the beach at Bexhill-On-Sea, East Sussex. It is a photo of stones that were stuck between two bits of wood on a sea breaker.
I used the polar coordinates filter in photoshop to turn in into a sphere and then carefully blended the join.
The effect in all four corners of the photo was actually caused by the filter and therefore an unexpected enhancement.
A little skewey from the panorama but you get the picture.

As usual, best viewed large (L). This is the shot of the waves breaking on the beach at Bray during last Tuesday’s easterly gale that I was working on when Silver Lining presented itself– since I took it I have been reading Peter Cox’s article in Luminous Landscape on Planning your Photography Trips in which he discusses how planned shots don’t always work but that a “found” shot can often be just as good. Last Tuesday I was lucky enough to get a planned and a found shot - the overall message is . . . get out there!
It was taken in heavy rain from the car at Raheen Park with the Canon 100-400mm set to 250 mm and ISO200 to get 1/200th of a second at f8, and with image stabilization on. In Lightroom, I did minor cropping at both sides and played around with the exposures and tone curves to bring out the breaking waves, as well as the usual sharpening.
