Hi Kobus,
Another beautiful image and the blending looks great. All the lines lead you to the middle ground rocks......while maybe not as strong of a focal point as the wreck in your earlier post......this still has all the great elements to it, color/comp & light....so it can definitely stand on it's own! Love the slow SS effect on the water. Another winner!

Absolutely gorgeous, Kobus. Nice job with the water with the slow shutter, and the blending worked very well. I might try taking a tad off the top to see how that works, too.

Hi Kobus,
The composition works well here, as I really like the foreground rocks and how they ground the image...
My eyes work the rest of the frame with delight!
Can you give more detail regarding the 3 image blending...

Thx all for the great comments appreciate it.
Gerald i used a ND 8 filter here and did 3 exposures. Used CS3 to pu together and leyer masks to blend.
Hope that helps

Kobus you are knocking out wonderful landscapes. Whose ND 8 filter did you use? This is another very strong image - thank you for sharing.

Well done for the reasons mentioned. Shutter speed just perfect here.

Love the slow shutter speed on the water. I'm either with Cindy--take a bit off the top, or pointing the camera down just a bit. Either would better balance the image. Possibly as this is sweet.
