Moody seascape

Although you can't tell from this photo, I woke up at 5:30AM on a Sunday morning to go shoot the nearest beach. I will be shooting a sunrises more often.

Hey Ryan,

This is pretty cool looking. The Mono tone look is pretty good looking. It doesn't seem to be a true B&W, or is it just my eyes?

Mornings are cool at the beach, I used to go there a lot when I worked Graveyard and got off at 6am. The direction light really gives the rocks there a totally different feel.

Wow... you've got some great eyes. Vibrance and Saturation in LR are set to -100; however both split tone sliders are set to 5.

Love the mood, Ryan. Very nicely done!

Excellent moody motion and the tones are perfect. My favorite part of the frame is the water motion in the rocks... Mike

Nice one - esp. around the rocks in the foreground. Glad you got up at 5:30 so you could share this with those of us who slept in

The rocks are where the action is, maybe less sky...

I think the little touch of toning is excellent, it adds to the moody feel of this image, and I think monochrome was the right choice, very nice image.
