Point Sur Beach

Here is another stitched pano from my Big Sur workshop from a couple of weeks ago. I am posting here in M&N due to the fence. The view from this portion of the coast is just breathtaking. On that afternoon, the wind was blowing so hard that I was not even sure I could keep the camera up right on the tripod. But everything worked out.

Nixon D2x, 5 vertical frames stitched in PS CS3.

Your comments and critiques appreciated.

Very beautiful scene! - but seems over-sharpened from here. ?

Thanks Sandy,

Yeah you are right, it does look a bit over sharpened.

Beautiful scenery. The larger view looks more natural (not over-sharpened).

Nicely done, Youssef. I'm very familiar with the Little Sur, spent many an afternoon on the beach in the old days before the property owner fenced it in to keep the "trash" droppers out.

Very nice indeed Youssef. Some cool patterns in the stream leading to the sea.
