OBX Sunset

ISO 200, f/9.0, 1/125sec

Who doesn't enjoy a good sunset photograph? I'm usually to lazy to get out of bed for a sunrise photo, so you'll have to settle for a sunset instead.

The colors while the sun started to dip below the horizon were amazing. This is one of those times where photos can't really give you the same feeling as actually being there, but I hope this will do.

HDR Sunset

ISO 200, f/11, 1/250/sec

In the previous post, I mentioned that two Coast Guard boats went speeding past our ferry boat. Well, this is the silhouette of the second boat against the sunset.

I had to hang off the side of our ferry boat to get this shot, but I knew I would be able to do it handheld as I was shooting into the sun.

The photo out of the camera looked great, but I still couldn't resist taking this photo into Topaz Adjust. Topaz is like a new toy that I can't quit playing with!

This photo is on my Flickr page and has gotten several positive comments. It has also been added to several HDR and sunset groups. I'm big time now! :)
