Challenge: In the Beginning... (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon PowerShot Pro1
Location: Central Coast
Date: Mar 29, 2005
Galleries: Landscape, Seascapes
Date Uploaded: Mar 29, 2005

Toyed with ideas of eggs and such but just don't have time or a decent studio.
I hoped for a decent sunset to maybe pass off as a sunrise. This rock and it's profile is well known in the community and fortunatly only 3min from my house. :) Enjoy!
No changes made accept size, would love some advise to improve. unfortunatly could not remove the bird specks in the sky under these rules.. oh, well :)

We must all be stopping dead in our tracks with this one. Can't be done any better than this.

This is a gorgeous image. I love the relfection onto the water. I also love how dark some of the objects in the image look. I love the variation of color seen from the sun peeking out from behind the object and I love the way the light from the sun reflects onto the water. nice work.

This is a nice sunset shot. I think a filter to give the remaining twinkle of sunlight a star effect would have taken this over the top. It is very nice, and I like the texture shown on the beach/water.

Focus seems too soft here, and you seem to have quite a dirty sensor (might want to clean that.. probably a result of being on the beach too much). Also, the horizon seems tilted which throws me off. While it's a nice, colorful beach shot, it's a little too cliche and the technical flaws bring it down too much in my book. 5.

Wow! Beautiful! what are those little specks in the sky? Maybe your sensor needs cleaning. Doesn't take away from the beauty of this though.10

Nice photo, fitting for challenge. I like the colors in this shot. There are some spots in the sky that distract from the picture. They might be birds, but it looks like dust.

lots of spots in the sky (clean your lens??) but overall nice image, colors, etc. 7

Very nice color and the water is gorgeous. I think I might prefer it with the horizon a little less centered.

Zoomdak? if not, total compliment. I thought this was another sunrise-sunset one, but the title kinda adds to the photo, instead of just, the beginning of day or night. Nice.

This image is very pretty! I love how the rock sets off the picture..and the sun is peaking around the rock and then reflecting onto the water. Its beautiful

Pretty shot, nice composition. For print I would clone out the spots. I know they're probably seagulls, but can't tell for sure. Too bad it's only basic editing (not scored lower for that).
