discussion, gear, and photography journal
I find this photo interesting, because at first glance, it looks like it's a composite image, with the left half from a sunny day, and the right half from an overcast day.

However, it's definitely a single frame, and clearly shows the impact of the blue sky on the water colour, with the ocean in the right half of the photo looking rather dull compared to the left hand side.

Lovely shot. Too bad about the surfer in the background.

Fantastic shot, I love the way you've frozen the wave.

Have you done much photo manipulation work?

Here are some fantastic efforts by Erik Johansson to admire:

@Richard: the photo in this post is not manipulated at all, other than some minor post-processing.

I've seen some of Erik's photos before - he does some excellent manipulations!
