One I've only just processed:

It's superb, except I'm not a fan of the reddish tint.

sealonsf · 01-15-2014, 01:36 PM

Beautiful. The red tint doesn't bother me.

sam-joseph · 01-15-2014, 02:05 PM

Nice. Looks hot there. Lens?

Regards

A suggestion: if you convert to monochrome the lens flare will visually disappear--it will be an artifact of the rock.

**Bruce Clark** · 01-15-2014, 02:14 PM

Very nice. I like the wide depth of field, and the red flare is OK with me but I would not object i if you were to remove it.

I like it. Classic wide angle composition. Even the processing and tint work. Nice and sharp, good focus. Only thing is the flare, but that is practically unavoidable in that kind of shot. You can try cloning it out, but its not a big problem.

I like it but I'm also not a flare fan. Just clone them out. I have to ask what the structure is on the top left-hand side? We only have a hint of it but I'm intrigued.

Thanks all for the comments, much appreciated and I apologise for the belated reply.
Lens is a Sigma 17-70mm non HSM model.

The structure you can see is a rocky cliff face.

This was shot on a different day but it shows more of the cliff face:
1.

Where I live is weird as on the other side of that cliff is land, you can just see the breaks in the cliff in the background that allows you access to the beach:
2.

To the right of the above picture just out of sight we have a fresh water natural lagoon:
3.

and then weirdly to the left of pic 2 is a natural sand dune area and then an old quarry that's now a fresh water small lake and that's backdropped against the cliff as in pic 1! So much here but a weird set up lol !!

Thanks for the insight. Weird? I vote for intriguing. Very interesting artwork in the dunes, too.
