Challenge: Afterlife (Basic Editing III)
Camera: Canon EOS-300D Rebel
Location: Brighton, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Date: Mar 3, 2006
Aperture: 8.0
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/500
Galleries: Water, Seascapes
Date Uploaded: Mar 5, 2006

 This shot was taken at Brighton Sea Baths in Melbourne. It was my first time there and I couldn\'t believe how beautiful the autumn light was just after sunset.
I know that Valhalla is more a place of wine, women and song for dead warriors but I couldn\'t resist!
No editing was done on this photo except the resize for the challenge.

Amazingly beautiful scene. I'm shocked that it wasn't edited.

Beautiful, rich color. I love the strong, warm lightsource from left to contrast the near black silloette on the right. The haze of the mountain range in the background and strip of clouds are great finishing touches. Only suggestion would be to crop less (if possible) on right to give it perfect composition. Took the eye a while to find the boat in the bottom corner.
