| Pacific sunsets | July 10, 2009 @ 4:44pm | I haven't had much time for photography lately and I have only been able to visit TME occasionally.
Here are two images for comment and critique from my last time out at the end of May.
The first image is Cedar Creek at Ruby Beach.
The second image is Second Beach Near Forks Washington.
Both images were captured 20-30 minutes after sunset.
Regards,
Phil

| July 12, 2009 @ 8:40am | Flo, thanks for the comment. I am thinking about lightening the first image and trying to warm it just a bit, but not quite certain how to get there with out compromising clarity and contrast.

| July 12, 2009 @ 4:15pm | Saul, thanks for the comment and suggestions. I will post a copy of the cropped version as soon as I figure out why I can't up load to smugmug.

Both are beautiful. I like the colours in both. I especially like the silhouetting of the rocks and the trees.

| July 13, 2009 @ 12:27am | I find I'm drawn more to the first picture. It has those wonderful reflective streams leading up and out toward the sea, along with the sunset colors. Not that I'd throw the second one away....

As for the crop, either way works for me.
