Norfolk Sunset

Went back to my old boat yesterday, the tea room near the old boat had agreed to sell some shots including the boat I have previously posted here and i thought well take the camera and see what happens. The light was stunning a Barn Owl was flitting in the distance, good weekend for Owls (ah Bob), so i set up and waited for a sunset, about 10 mins after the sun set it up lite the clouds over head and the glow was still all around, it was an amazing sunset, so i pressed the shutter a few times spun the camera round and did the second half of my planned pano....

I then spend back to home desperate to get it on the computer to see if i had mucked it up...

processed with the help of Andy As new disks (worth weight in gold IMHO)

I am very pleased with the results... but...

As ever all C & C warmly welcomed ... best viewed large

It's certainly a stunning scene Phil, but it's way too red on my screen

Hey mate, I assume your screen is calibrated et al, so I also assume what i can see is what you can see, those assumptions taken as correct, it was a really intense sunset, honestly, i think ive got it about right. Perhaps if others agree i will lighten the scene a bit which will reduce the intensity of the reds. It would be a shame though as i do believe it is accurate. I did expect this comment

Phil if this is how it was stick to it,i think the large one is simply stunning!

Can't make my mind up about this one Phil. I have to say I find it a little intense.The blacks in the boat do have a red peak but thats probably just the light temperature anyway. I took some of a sunset last night and used a whole range of ev adjustments- both up and down. Just one stop under changed the whole thing dramatically- especially colour wise. Once the sky had darkened the colour became washed out . The intense bit only lasted a few minutes but it was a lot brighter.
See what others think.
I certainly liked your previous ones of the same boat.
Cheers

It does look red to me, but if that is what you saw, then stick with it.

The low res version looks a tadge dark Phil but large is fine. I am ok with the reds as you do see skies with this intensity occasionaly. The slight vignetting really helps the image

Bob

It is one of those scenes that make you look, look and look again! Very dramatic - really beautiful and if that is how it was, stick with it.

Phil

If it's as you saw it, that's the image and unique as is.

Those colours really are stunning Phil, great shot

Simply stunning Phil and MUST be seen LARGE! Living on the west coast we get some pretty spectacular sunsets that are blood red so I think it looks natural to me and not too red at all. Very jealous!

HI Phil - must be my work screen, or the HDR process that's increased the saturation ? I'll look again on the home gear when I have a spare moment.
