This was not the same picture as this one. I will attach the original to this comment.

Thanks for your reply Dan. It will instructive for me to see the shot before PS processing was applied. Reciprocity failure, in a nutshell, is the unpredictable effect of very long or short exposure times. I asked because I could see no evidence of it in your picture and it makes me very keen to try Velvia.

The above URL is a short explanation of this complex phenomenon.
Cheers!

To answer your question Jeff, I increased the contrast which helped increase the color some. As for question 2: I don't even know what "resitance of Velvia to reciprocity failure" means, so I would have to say no.
I will upload another picture I took about 10 ten minutes before this one, but leave it as taken without any PS changes.

3.30am! Well... it is a great picture Dan. I have not used Velvia before and the colours are stunning. I have two questions for you. 1. Did this picture get any post processing in PS? 2. Do you know much about the resitance of Velvia to reciprocity failure with long exposures over say... 1 second ?
Cheers!
Jeff

Every book I read seems to say the same thing, if you want good landscape pictures, there are two basic rules: Sunrise and Sunset. So, I get up at 3:30.
When got to the beach where I took this picture, there was one other car there. And he was there to take pictures too.

Thanks, I was hoping it was worth getting up a 3:30am for that 2 hour drive.
This picture was actually taken towards the west. The clouds were blocking most of the sun, so I couldn't get a good picture of the sun coming up. I took a few but tossed them.

I agree with Kim -- blue people really do get some amazing light off the ocean. Nice shot.

Beautiful colour. I'm amazed at the light blue people manage to get off the ocean.. is this from the sunrise or the 15 sec. exposure? It sure it pretty! I really like the group of rocks in the foreground!
