    Gotta say that I think I like 3 best of the series. Was going to ask if you had tried a b/w conversion of 2 (maybe with a cool tone) - not that it really needs work rolleyes1.gif

    The first two are almost spooky but I love the b/w one. Nothing like long exposures to spice up a beach. thumb.gif

    i'm with Schmoo on this one, Ron... the B&W with the slow shutter is top-notch.

    is the stream still as deep out there? i'm thinking of a trip out that way sometime in the next month or two, and wondering if i need hip boots to stay dry! :D

    Ron Ive seen a ton of your shots from here, I think that first one in this series is an overall favorite. Well done.

    Nice set Ron, I really like the first one, it looks so other-worldly.

    Thanks, if #2 was naturally grayish (like #3) I would have converted to B&W, but I like the moody blue tones.

    Spooky is a good adjective :)

    That stream is crazy right now, the current is high and it's up to a waist deep in some places up stream, not as deep low-stream but you can't cross it there during high tide. So be prepared!

    Thanks! I was hoping to do some night shots with the moon in addition to moonset/sunrise, but the clouds (and snow!) came in before sunrise. I'm glad I was there at 4AM to capture the night shots, I have a shortage of moon/beach shots and it's always fun to be out there alone shooting.

    Ron, I love the first shot the best, but I know what a great series it is because opinions on the best shot are so varired--every shot a favorite! Best, Pam
