An HDR shot of a beautiful rock on Second Beach, near La Push, WA.
The sunlight against the rock sihlouette really surprised me with this one and after some agonizing on coloring I went with the nighttime feel even though it was an early morning shot.

Thanks
Adam.

This is an exceptional shot! Love the details throghout, the sharpness, and the subtlety of the mist and trees in the distance!

Love how the lines draw you all over the image and the contrast between the cool tone and warm invite of the sun beams. Congrats on a great capture!

Something I always wanted to see :-). Great composition. Wonderful cloud formation and I like the focus on the forground with the froth of the sea. the thing I don't like so much is the streaky mountain/rock. I assume its sun rays, but it looks odd to me.

there's plenty to like here, the composition and reflections but I'm less happy with the processing of the sun, anyway, hope you do well with it
