Yet another sunny evening in the Puget Sound. This is the fourth time I’ve gotten out to the beach this month and enjoyed a sunset. At first I didn’t want to go and was avoiding it, but at the last minute something in me said, “Go!” so I went, not sure what I’d fine. I mean, I had already been to this beach three times this month for what was surely the same sunset, why bother?
Because no two days are the same.
This shot is straight out of the camera with only slight saturation increase and moving the black point to the right a bit. Oh and contrast, contrast +2.
