Early One Morning

[AlanLichty]

A bit of pre-sunrise light along one of the beaches at Bandon, Oregon. I had to remove a couple of bright stars as this exposure was too long and left trails instead of spots.

C&C always welcome.

Nice placement of the stacks

 

[Jameel Hyder]

The cloud colors and movement relative to the stacks make this a very compelling image. Good call for a long exposure.

 

[Jeffrey]

Simple and realistic. Like I'm there. Nice, Alan.

Thanks Ben - it seemed like the right place to aim my camera at the time.

Thanks Jameel - I have to confess that there weren't a lot of choices for the shutter speed at this hour of the morning. I had hoped to include the stars that were still out but this is a 2 minute exposure and they didn't look so good.

Simple and realistic. Like I'm there. Nice, Alan.

Thank you Jeffrey - one of my goals in processing is to get the "Like I'm there" viewing experience.

I like this one very much. My only question is: did you consider cropping out the partial rock on the far right?

Thanks Stephen - to be honest I didn't really even notice the rock until you mentioned it. Now I can't unsee it

Sorry, Alan!

Alan, nice long exposure to fill the sky.

That’s some really great color! Sometimes the pre-sunrise color is the best.

 

[Bob]

Beautiful color in the sky. Nice composition.

Thanks Oliver.

Thanks Jim - this turned out better than the actual sunrise that followed.

Thanks Bob.
