Description Pringle Bay, South Africa

I wasn't sure about this one, but with a different crop the comp felt better.

I really like it. The colors are amazing! The position it's taken in looks OK, but maybe one straight across with an up close of the rock with the background drawing in would look good too, but then you'd be in the water...

Love the foreground with that rock, and the motion of the water around it.
Not keen on the colour over the highlights on the center left part of the water, did you recover that in the raw editor at all?

Aah, hold on, I see what you mean. I'll try and make it more natural looking and repost. Thanks for the tip Phil.

No problem Phil. Did you use the burn tool to darken the area?

Ok, I reposted now. It's better, but not perfect. No, I just used a curves layer for the darkening, but I it totally does look like a bad burn job Do you think it works now? I found that if I took it any lighter, it started looking ridiculous. But anyway, time to go to bed, I'll fiddle with it later.

A tad better mate, but still room for a little improvement.
I know what you mean, nearly 11pm, and work in the morning, bed is calling.

Yeah I darkened it a bit, otherwise it would've been blown out. Also I did not want the reflection to be darker than the sky. Do you think it is too dark? The colours too saturated?
