Escapism

The Villa #5

24 Jul, 2010

This was a discarded shot from my trip to the Maldives and if you look at the original you will see why. It was a 30 second exposure which suffered from tripod movement as it was windy and the tripod was not sufficiently weighted down on the beach. I showed the post processed version to my wife just now prior to blogging it and she really did not like it at all. I agree that it has flaws and as this is only my second long exposure shot that I have ever blogged I am not entirely confident that it works however I feel it still has some merit so felt like blogging it regardless to see what you thought of it...

Update: I have just added a new feature to Escapism where you can now download a small Photoshop PSD file of any image that I blog so that you can see the adjustments I made to the image. You can access this feature here:
