Pacific Northwest Coastal Highlights

Long exposures are quickly becoming a favored landscape method in my toolbox. Very little was done in post, only a bit of NR and curves and a short stop in ACR for the clarity slider.

Handy tip: 16-bit tiffs can be edited in Adobe ACR. I really dig the vibrance and clarity sliders offered in ACR (Adobe Camera RAW), highly recommend! No vibrancy on this one, but it's nice for when you need it. I did use a soft 2-stop ND Grad on this.

And if you miss your old flickr home page, good news!

And another one ( http://flickr.com/photos/kiwi_kirsch/2952035812/in/set-72157608168614244/ ) even more like the old Page-thanks to kiwi_kirsch!
