Both convincing shots, Dean… I would have
healed out the ugly wires in the first, though.

The DR of the D810 is spectacular, you did use it brilliantly!
What about the story telling? A train crash or else…

Thanks a lot. I've been using the Pentax K-1 with the same censor and DR for a couple of years and when I went "dual-brand", I just couldn't resist the D810.

 

Hm.., story telling. Well not my strong suite. Maybe this one?

If you can tell anyone anything, you are telling a story. A joke — even a
dirty — one is a story. A picture is a thousand words they say… some
event, anything… if you want your picture to transcend the reportage,
or the documentation.

I shot this Friday afternoon at about 6pm, over here you are treated to wide open ocean sunsets almost everyday (minus storm days) and I wanted to do something different.  When I seen this break in the stone wall and the plants I thought that it would be a great way to frame the sunset. In processing I kept the wall in the shadows as I wanted your eyes to look at the sunset and not the wall. Editing was kept to a minimum with a slight bump on the brightness, lens correction, and noise reduction. Shot with a D5600 and Tamron 16-300 lens at 1/20, F18. iso 100, @ 62mm
