Thursday, October 14, 2010: Surf Action

I took these shots in Solana Beach. I need a better lens to get a sharper shot to catch the action I crave, but for now I am pleased with my work. These are my first surf action shots in CA. I loved them so much I had to do some post production, so here are some before and afters.

Before

The beach was very grey on this particular day so color boost was a must.

Wednesday, October 13, 2010: Silver Strand

These photos were taken at Silver Strand beach. I love how quiet this beach is and I tried to capture that feeling in the photos.

The range of color in this shot is amazing.
I am proud of how well this exposure came out with all the reflection here.
Despite the camera lens being knocked out of place, I like effect it can add to shots. Here I used it to frame in a simple shot, and the composition turned out much more interesting.
Solitude
I love the detail despite the harsh reflection here.

Tuesday, September 14, 2010: Scripps Pier

These photos were taken at Scripps Pier Seaweed tangle
I like the way I was able to catch an old man and a young boy, who both happen to look similar, doing the same thing... It makes a simple pier shot much more interesting.
I love the sky here... The beach was so foggy, but the light kept struggling to shine through....
