Thanks all for the kind words.
Last Sunday was a cold rainy, windy, foggy miserable day. No football. I spent the day going through some older images that I had never processed or printed. Here is one from January 2016.
Thanks for looking
Dave

I love the compositions and beautiful scenery, but too much tone mapping/saturation, imo. Nothing personal, just an objective critique. Your compositions are perfect and you've manage to convey a beautiful area that could easily pass for the beaches and dunes of the Carolina's.

Thanks for your thoughtful comments. That's why I like to post here....we have talented, and civil ladies and gentlemen. Here is a less saturated version. The original was a three shot HDR, and the sky was montaged from another shot.

A7RII. Foreground: Voigtlander 12mm lens ISO 400, 1/400 f10. Sky: A7RII, Sigma "A" mount 12~24mm lens with adapter @15mm, ISO 400 1/30, f5.6. To fit the foreground onto the sky, the format was changed from 3:2 to 4:3.
Thanks for looking.

I think that was it - the sky being from another scene. The clouds are dramatic but the lighting seemed to surreal and not authentic for the foreground, imo. I consider anything wider then my 25mm to be an ultra wide and it takes skill to compose this FL. You do a great job with it, as I can walk around a photo. I bet the NJ tourism or Chamber of Commerce would love these pics to promote these beautiful beach towns.

Thanks again for your comments. I am going with the lower saturated version on my web site. I posted another sky/foreground montage over on the Fun with Nikon board. That image used a 24mm lens forground (Tamron 24-70 VC lens), and 14mm for sky (Nikon 14~24mm lens).
Best regards
Dave
PS: I turn 80 years old tomorrow, and am still messing with photography!
