Carcavelos beach at dawn
« on: June 13, 2015, 02:35:40 pm »

These were taken yesterday morning, in the beach near my house. This beach is normally crowded during the summer, which is approaching. I normally go out and shoot here during the year. In the summer, shooting at dawn meand getting up at 5 am... but I wanted to get the low tide. I also wanted to test my bought used and old Nikkor 24 f2.8 AIS lens on my Sony A7. I am quite pleased, it is a fantastic and cheap lens, great results at landscape apertures, sharp into the corners and edges. Distortion can be corrected easily in LR with the profile from the Nikkor 24 f2.8 AFD lens (the AF successor to the AIS).

Regards.

Love them all, especially the first two, for their simplicity, pastel tones, and calmness.

Thanks all for the feedback. It is very difficult to get the sidelight in #3, only happens in some days in the summer, when the sun rises much more to the NE.

Beautiful photos, with the second edging out the first as my favorite. Nicely processed.

+1. From the "less is more" department.

Tend to prefer #1 over #2, though #2 is very good too!
