About This image was shot on the beach to the south of the lighthouse at Holland, Michigan, known locally as Big Red. I was after the reflection of the lighthouse on the wet sand and quite happy with what I got in this image. A 2 stop grad ND filter was used with the beginning of the gradient located along the horizontal line at the base of the rocks to the left and at the bottom of the grassy dune just above the gulls to the right to keep the start of the gradient unobtrusive in the image. The photo was spot metered on the wet sand in the foreground for about a half dozen wave cycles, adjusting the shutter iteratively until when the wave was in the position I wanted I'd get the correct exposure averaged out for the 3 sec exposure I was inclined to use for this to allow me to shoot at f22. Comments are always welcome.

The colors are almost too unreal..yet I know they are real after reading your 'About'. I have never seen such an awesome glowing red reflection such as you have captured in this image due to the sun shining on the lighthouse. Pretty cool. Very unique.

The exposure is perfect and well thought out. This is a great view of this Holland landmark taken during a time of day rarely seen. I agree with the lighting on the rocks being a bit distracting but I'm not sure how you could have avoided it and still included the reflection. I like Tony's crop even if that composition is a it tight. An abstract of just the sand and reflection would be interesting too with this light.

This shot was perfectly exposed and has wonderful color...perhaps the composition could have been slightly better, but I still love it just as it is.

looks as if the beach was painted Gary....for me...whagt really makes this photo a winner ..is how the light is hitting Big Red..warming that rich red.

Congrats on getting up for dawn,smthng I find tremendously difficult but well worth the effortas this shot demonstrates.I love the light and colours here but the highlighted clutter to the left, rather a distraction.Iwould have got in closer to the water and taken this shot from lower down-as in the attatchment.Good work though,hope to see more of Big Red in the future.

I love the reflection in the wet sand. The bright red in in the sand makes this image very strong. The only thing I can suggest is that maybe the lighthouse is to centered at the top of the image. The shore line has a very nice diagonal line that your eye follows through the image. I would like to see the lighthouse flow into that line a little more. I think you have a good thing going here. Keep working with it.
