Sunrise at the beach plus more!!

Coleman Photography

Well I went down to the beach the other morning to shoot the sunrise, and thought I ended up with a few nice ones. CC welcome!

This was my first shot of the morning.




This one was taken about 30min later after the sun had risen and the clouds were nice.

You have to work at leveling your horizons in the color ones. Aside from that these are excellent images.

Are the first two HDR?

Very good
I like your work, I don't want to sound like I am critiqueing your work but I see a lot of dust spots in your photo's, your camera sensor seems a little dirty.

Thanks you. Yes I did miss the horrizons, I will have to fix that. And actually they are all shot in hdr. All are 3 bracket shots merged in photomatix and a tad more pp in ps.

Thanks for the compliment. My sensor is dirty I have to send it in to get cleaned. I cloned out as much as possible.

Crop the blurry part off the bottom in 4, take off the white border, then that would be a cool shot.
Looks like you are having fun out working on some things.
As mentioned....with landscapes...three things will kill the shot.
Tilted horizons, sensor dust, distracting logo, unfortunately all three are present in these.
Looks like you have a decent eye for seeing the shot, work on execution.

^ thanks for yhe tips, em fixing the horrizon in them now. As for sensor dust I cant really do anything about. I cloned out as much a possible.

It's weird... #2 is my favorite, but I find myself simultaneously loving and hating the HDR "look". I find myself thinking: "That's awesome! But it's a bit too... glowy. But that's what's awesome about it! Yeah but it looks wrong. But it looks awesome!"
