Nikon DSLR "Picture Of The Day"

[D70FAN]

Now we're off the HDR bandwagon here's something exactly the opposite, very small dynamic range and pastel. A happy snap taken while walking on the beach yesterday.

You be a lucky dude. Treasure it. It goes by really fast.

D70,

I like the sea lions, but I would crop it so that it is 100% sea lions. It would give it a more abstract look.

Done. Not really sure it's better... but still fun, and different.

Chevy SS is the new pace car for the Daytona 500 this year. Nice car, although I like Mustangs, myself.

As always Tim, well thought out shots. Using the walls as a frame works well.

A picture of the "Working Wharf". This is where the fishing trip and whale watching boats are normally moored.

Thanks D70Fan. I couldn't help looking at the entrances, maybe subconsciously trying to see through to the past.

As for the 'working wharf', I think it works even better if you boost the colours and up the contrast a bit more.

LOL Tim, Yeah thats actually kind of funny as I shot this in HDR (handheld) and thought it needed a little less contrast to keep it looking less HDR-ish. Viewed in NX2 and printed on Premium Pearl at 8x10 it looks much better.

Sorry for the HDR guys, but with the D7000 back, there are some shots that just need the xtra DR. This hand-held (using a walkway rail) is only my third try and still a little blurry. Must remember to carry the monopod/tripod.
