Crimson Sunrise (newbie)

[icarus]

Just taken this shot this morning... any comments on how to improve this shot? :dunno: :sweat: :sweat: :embrass:

my super newbie comment, looks tilted to the left?:dunno: SG sun got so big meh?

Nice catch, I find it might work better for me if some foreground details were there...:thumbsup:

ps the sun back to yellow

I notice dim images of people in the lower right corner. To me, if you enhance the images to show the outlines of these people more clearly will give more scale and punch to the picture?

Wah, an old bird claiming to be a newbie ;p


Long time no see James. Anyway, I would prefer the outline of the beach/seaside to be more prominent.

Can PS to make the sea brighter and more sparkling ?? :bsmilie:

Actually, the picture looks better if crop off the lower 1/2.

Only the sea water looks slightly brighter now...:bsmilie:
I did changes using the first picture.

Your version post PS seems to have lots of noise, i guess introduced during shadow/highlight command? you might want to either lower amount of lightening or mask to only apply command to water+beach+people?

maybe if u have taken the shot with sun partially shielded by the palm leaves, more can be done post-imaging processing, as, I think, the dynamic range in the pic will be better. Also i think better compositionally.
