Sunset at Playa de Portizuelo, Asturias

[Vieri Bottazzini]

Sunset at Playa de Portizuelo, in Asturias. To get that close to the arch with the right amount of water, you need to wade a bit in the ocean timing your visit when the tide is just about right around sunset Hasselblad X1D, Hasselblad XCD 30mm, and my beloved Formatt-Hitech Firecrest Ultra filters.



Thank you for viewing, best regards

Beautifully captured seaside scene with incredible rock formations. The birds add the special icing.

It's like a McDonalds M... they should definitely pay you. 

[Paulo Bizarro]

Well done.

I like the intense glow behind the arches. The birds give a good idea of the scale and also add some life to this mineral world.
One nit, I see some haloes on the ridgeline (left side of the image) although it could be a jpeg compression issue…

Well done!

Thank you very much Les, glad you enjoyed it! And yes, it was a pretty patient seagull, it kept still for all our session there, and the four of us made a bit of noise too. He is probably used to pose!

Quite lovely.

Thank you very much Eric!

I should try that! It will go nicely towards getting whatever next thing Hasselblad has in store for us...

Well done.

Thank you very much Paulo!

Thank you very much Francois, glad you enjoyed it! About the halo, it is the combination of the jpg compression on a high contrast area, it doesn't show on the full-sized photo
