RWS = Nature Beauty

Gallery: LandscapePosted September 8, 2013142 views9 comments

And what i mean by RWS is: Rocks, Water and Sky, give me those three in nature and you will see wonders.

I processed this photos as HDR, not true HDR because it is created from one RAW file, and i wanted that surreal look, so talking about natural look is not my intention here, i can work on the RAW file for little adjustments and it will be fine, but this one really got my preference.

It is taken from Al-Hamriya beach [Sharjah] February 2013, the weather in UAE during November up to March is nice, so i went there to take seaside shot with a friend who wanted to learn about shooting landscapes and waterscape.

The large version is terrific, great color and a cool water texture.
I think it needs a very slight CW rotation.

Very nice and interesting composition. The tonality looks good. In the large version I can see what look like ships on the horizon line. I'd clone those out. I also agree about the need for a slight CW. I like the warm against cool color scheme.

Lovely colors, and while it does look unreal, I like it very much. Lots of texture in the rocks, which make it interesting and I like the composition. Is there a boat on the horizon? I tried to scratch it off my screen, thinking it was a little dust but now I think it is part of the image. I think it is a little bit distracting, but great overall photo.

Thank you very much all!

Yes, those are boats and could be some of those sea fields for oil or whatever, i will edit again to eliminate those issues as boats and horizon line to b straight.

Interesting shot with texture contrasts and angle. Only suggestion might be to have the rock pile not quite so centered.
