Description Honeymoon Island, Dunedin Florida

3 shot HDR in Photomatix

The sky didn't color as much as I had hoped but it was still a very exciting sunset.

Oh this is so beautiful! I love the texture of the water and the darkest clouds and the bits of color...and the two posts on the right add a wonderful visual balance!!

Thanks so much Ruth. The two posts on the right are actually what's left of a couple of palm trees. For some reason the beaches have really shifted location this year even though we didn't have any hurricanes. I was really aiming for a balance of smooth water without losing the texture and detail in the clouds. I knew things were moving too fast for a long shutter speed so I tried my luck with HDR instead and I think it worked.

Excellent! I love the balance of the trees on the right to the cloud on the left.

Thanks Rebecca. I took it with and without but thought this had more interest when all was said and done. Without the trees definitely has more of a feel of depth to it but not much else.
