Nice work Francisco

Nice work Francisco

Yes, I too like this one. Francisco, did you use a filter for the sun? You did well to get the rays like that without any blotchy flares. Unusual composition, but I think it looks good.

I did not use any filters. The flare occurred was eliminated PS.
Thanks for yours comments

Brilliant in all respects - congrats, very nice.

Just curious though with taking 3 separate shots why the wave is not blurred? Do you mask it and only use 'the wave' from one of the shots?

[alvarito]

accurate, I can edit with chewing Zeronoise fusion and choose the areas that interest me for a photo.
sorry but my English is not very correct

One way to minimise that (but not eliminate it) is to set your camera bracketing then set auto-timer. Your camera should lift the mirror, take the three shots in rapid succession and then close mirror. If conditions are bright then it may take well under a second, much quicker than pressing the shutter three times by hand.

very good advice

This is too good; however I would be inclined to darken that light sand. It is very nice, did you use a tripod and how did you keep it steady? cheers

[alvarito]

The dynamic range of the scene is approximately 16EV. With just 3 shots is impossible to draw more fully on the sand.
The tripod I leaned against a rock to help stabilize.
Thanks for your visit

16 ev; crikey the most I ever got was 13 ev. Right I think you can still burn the sand then you will achieve immortality as the one who took this great shot. It is a great shot but maybe a slightly different angle to give the boat 3D, it is only an inch or so.

[alvarito]

Front sun into the shade of the boat itself is a large dynamic range. It is better to lose detail in shadow.
You may be right about the point of view
