🤔 I'd like to know your thoughts - with waves or without waves?

in #landscapephotography6 years ago (edited)

Believe it or not - the first image is actually a composite of 22 images! The reason is, I used a technique in Photoshop that removes people from images. The trick is that you need to shoot several images (making sure to shoot sections with people not in the shot).

It'll make sense tomorrow as I'll be releasing my next DTube video walking you through step by step!

Now this image also has no people but I Photoshoped an image (over the previous one) with a long exposure shot I took.

I'm going for the one with waves. I bet a lot of people would like the no waves one though. For me lighthouses look better with stormier character : )

That's a good point! While I was there it dawned on me that it'd be awesome to come back in the winter when there's snow. Thanks for your feedback!

It's a beautiful spot and shot.

I think I prefer without waves!

Waves - love waves!

With waves. I like the bottom one and I'm normally a fan of smoothing out water with long exposures. However the "action" of the waves crashing on the rocks adds a great element to the top shot. Nice work @mickeycolon!

I agree with you - thanks for your input!

I think I prefer the long exposure, as much as I like the waves the choppiness of the water seems a bit distracting. Did you have to use ND filters for the long exposure?

No I didn't - but when shooting photos of water and you use the Photoshop script technique- your final image looks like you used a ND filter.

It's a technique some people use that either don't have one or left it home. But I wasn't too crazy about the look so I decided to add the waves back.
