Sunlight and Clouds on Beach 4, originally uploaded by briburt.
Now that I’m out here in New England, I thought it might be time to revisit some shots I took when we were out on the Pacific Coast last fall.
Going through my Lightroom library revealed a number of shots with potential, and this was one I decided to go ahead and process and see what came out of it.
Overall, I like how it turned out, though the blown out areas behind the trees are less than optimal in my opinion. I tried to use Lightroom to recover some of these areas, but they are still overexposed. What saves the picture in my view are the sun rays streaming through the trees and hitting the beach, contrasted with the blue sky and dramatic clouds.
Not bad, I guess, but there are others from the same shoot that I prefer over this one.
