Thanks for all the great comments lately, I really appreciate them! I wanted to share this shot I took yesterday evening after work from the Cuma Beach, just outside of Naples, Italy. As you can see, there were not many clouds, and the sunset wasn’t really anything write home about, but the photo came out fine nonetheless. I particularly liked the way the rushing water blurs ever so slightly. What do you think??
Thanks for visiting and Happy Holidays!

Its a nice shot. You’ve captured the movement in the lapping wavelets and the pure calmness of the sunset. I like the colour tones, nice and natural.
Thanks Bill, I apprecaite the comment! The water movment really got to me, made me just stare and think

… an excellent sundown photograph with impressive colours. The water in the foreground looks a little bit like a blanket. A very special, interesting effect.
I hope you’ll have nice holidays

Thanks John! Your follow up post made me laugh. Merry Christmas to you as well!
Beautiful shot, did you use a 2 stop ND filter or rely on shutter speed?
Thanks Ed. I was using my ND Vari filter. I think its 10 stops… I should probably know that… haha. this is the 1st exposure of a three bracket (I shoot almost everything in brackets now, even though I find myself processing less and less HDR’s). This was maybe 4 stops, lower bracketed shot. I had to use the ND filter in Lightroom to darken the sky and lighten up the foreground a tad.
what a great image, wouldn’t have expected this just outside Naples… Merry Christmas!
I think this is beautiful. The colors, the textures in the water, the mountains in the background, the sun and the clouds. Just all make a beautiful image. Happy holidays to you!
came out great my friend! love the vibrant colors! have a great Xmas!
Love the blur in the water and the colours are beautiful. I’m interested in your creative commons thing as I am considering doing the same and just working out how exactly to go about it.

It was the best fit for my “creative outlook” for the future of my work – so to speak. Ask me if you have any questions.
