01082009-Pigeon Point

Pigeon Point Light Station, California

A long exposure 20 minutes after sunset to get the blurred surf
The water was as soft as the night sky emphasizing the rocky shore
The light in the lighthouse was still not working... very odd.

43s f/9.0 at 42.0mm iso100 3-stop Graduated ND Filter + 6-stop ND filter full exif

Fantastic Zane, spot-on exposure and colors.
One of these days, the lighthouse will add the final touch you are looking for!

seems like 3 stop ND gradual didnt work well between the rock and the light house.
anyway, it still producing dramatic color at the sky.
