Description

Hey everyone, well as I threatened yesterday we're back to another sunrise pic today ;) I figure if I'm up when it's happening it will always lend a degree of interesting light to scenes I must have already photographed hundreds of times so it's difficult to resist... (not a beach this time tho!) I've been wanting a shot of the pier for a while which focused on a rusty bollard to show the effects of time and the elements and this is the only one up to this point I'm vaguely happy with. Still keeping my eyes open for a misty morning so I can get one of the pier extending into seeming infinity but that's a story for another day.. Thanks to all who gave me feedback on the border/presentation to my last post, altered it again slightly for today but think I'm happy with it for the time being and grateful for the input. Have a great Sunday everyone, take it easy now ;) Adam

that's one of the best sunrise pictures I've seen in a long time! I really like the mixing of the stone pier, the rusting metal, the clouds, water, and sunrise. This is a masterpiece!!!

very nice capture - the pov is a bit challenging without knowing what your looking at though - or are familiar with the objects in question I imagine.

thanks for the comments - to answer your question atlas7 no special filters were used... it's a HDR shot composed from 3 bracketed exposures with a small amount of photoshop work to bring out the colours and contrasts and a bit of dodging and burning on the post

Am I right in thinking that you captured this image at the East Sands in St Andrews? I have taken many pictures there myself but none as good as this one.
