Thank you, Keith, but it's not Barbara - Just a woman on the beach whose hair was rimmed by the pre-sunup light. Barbara was standing next to me on the 2-mile long boardwalk. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted August 4, 2023 Author Share #11 Posted August 4, 2023 Keith (pedaes) suggested bringing up the foreground in the 3rd photo. No surprise that he was right.

wda Posted August 4, 2023 Share #12 Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Stuart, if you are in the mood for further experimentation with your fine seascape, using the same mask used for brightening your picture, make gentle adjustments to the white balance (colour temperature) until you warm up the foreground to produce an effect more in sympathy with the sunset. If you dislike the changes, just undo them. The colour balance choice is entirely personal. Edited August 4, 2023 by wda 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 5, 2023 Share #13 Posted August 5, 2023 #3 (revised version) works best for me. I like the bright reflections on the sea. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wda Posted August 5, 2023 Share #16 Posted August 5, 2023 Stuart, nearly but not quite. I have a disadvantage in not knowing the true colour of the foreground. I guess your version more nearly approaches the truth. It is just a shade more blue than I expected. Maybe that is how it looks at that hour. It is more important that the end result pleases you. That is what matters most. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
