hi Darragh, not one of your best, but i still like it. a lower perspective would have made the foreground jump out a bit, and ten degrees to the left would have sat better for me.
I would have set up and waited for the sun to drop a bit ,to high for me also.
Is there a slight halo going up the rock/cliff adge or is it me?
i think it is brilliant! actually the best sunset image i saw in the last few month in PS! Well done. I can remember that you use filters right? what exactly did you use because i never used one of these. well done!
Hi Daragh,
I like your image. Shooting into the sun & getting a nice balanced exposure is never easy. When I looked at an enlarged image I notice a lot of foreign bodies showing up on the image and a strange line in the sky on the upper right hand side.

This is a sunrise shot, I am envious of those people on the west coast with sunset.
Madeleine,
I use Singh-Ray Reverse Grads.
These filters have a dark band across them especially for shooting into the sun.
These are better example images of using these reverse grad filters
Thanks for the info in the filters Darragh – I’ve been wondering for some time if something like this is availible. It seems a logical choice for sunset/sunrise images.
Like the shot btw – the sky has a lovely hue to it. Is it just me or can i see the edge of the filter? A line from the top of the cliff, about a 3rd in from the RHS. Should be easily fixed.
