A Quiet Morning at Ruby

[AlanLichty]

One of the keys to happiness when shooting at Ruby Beach is to get there early enough to be able to shoot before people flock in and leave footprints everywhere. I got about 20 minutes worth of shooting in on a morning back in March before others crossed Cedar Creek and wandered in front of where I was shooting.

That rock looks like a mini version of Face Rock. I hear you about being there early, it is so nice and peacful.

Hey Alan, I like how there is that little S curve of a water drain in the gap between the rocks. It is really cool and leads the eye back to that nice cloud effectively.

 

[Mike Mancil]

Really nice light that early, too. (Put up some "Rabid Jellyfish" signs to keep the hordes at bay.)

I agree. Well seen regarding the s curve - perfect composition.

 

[JohnC]

Very nice. I wish I could get into that getting up early thing.

A lot of things working for this image. The soft early morning light, the color reflecting from the water and that curve between the rocks. The subtle processing also works really well.
