First light over Alcatraz was created at 6:35 am using my Olympus Em1x and a Zuiko 40-150 2.8 lens. The iso was 64, f3.5 1/320 se. I used an Induro Tripod and Kirk ball head. I edited the image in Adobe photoshop cc and utilized the Luminar 3 plugin. Enjoy!
This is super cool looking Mike. Love the color in this.
I am pretty sure this is level, check the horizontal lines. Water edges in bays can sure be deceiving and create an optical illusion of a photo not being level when it is.
I like the warm/cool color contrasts and the silhouette of the water tower on the island. The choppy water isn't a very pleasant texture to me though. Did you try it with a neutral density filter to smooth it out to see what you prefer?
The horizon is level as the tripod was on a flat section of ground and I used the level in the camera to double check it. In regards to the water there was a light breeze at roughly 5-7 mph . Thank you for the compliments everyone.
There is an issue with Uploading Photos (attachjments). I am not sure what the problem is, and I am looking into it. You can still try to Create your Threads and Upload your Photos, but it is hanging up during the Upload.
