Relaxation At Its Best

Unfortunately I didn't have a chance to upload photos until tonight/ today, however you want to look at it, due to a barrage of midterms and quizzes.  Before this massive attack launched on me, I was able to venture out to Carmel By The Sea with my mother and father for an afternoon of shopping and a hearty dinner.  As my mother meandered through every store (if you know Carmel By The Sea, there a too many to count), my father and I headed down towards the beach.  To our surprise, we managed to find a parking spot RIGHT next to the sand. As we trekked our way down the sandy hill, a pleasant sight had appeared before us.  Hundreds of dogs.  For those of you who know me, you can only imagine how excited I was to meet, play with, and photograph these dogs.

However, as fun as these pooches were, I was on the beach for one sole purpose: to photograph the sunset and the beauty that comes with it.  Soon, I found myself enthralled by the oranges, yellows, and magentas coloring the clouds as if they were black sheets of paper.  With only ten to fifteen minutes of shooting time, my beach experience was over and it was time to head back for dinner, leaving this wonderful experience happier than ever.

  1. Wow! Great pictures especially the "Romp Life Away", great depth of field and nice clean image. Good Job. Did you use an ND filter for this shot?

  2. Hey An Jo! Thanks for the comments! I actually didn't use an ND filter, but what I did do was burn in the sky and adjusted some of the curves. That's about it!
