Curved rock on Laguna Beach

This HDR was taken on Laguna Beach, out in Orange County, CA.  It’s a beautiful place and if you are nearby I highly recommend that you go check it out.  Bring the camera too!  I happened to be there around sunset, just after some storms had passed so I really enjoyed walking around and snapping a few.  In this shot, I really liked the curved rock and it appeared to me to resemble a gloved hand or something along those lines.

This is a 6 exposure HDR taken at f/13, with exposures ranging from -3 to +2.  I merged them into an HDR in Photomatix, and then made my typical adjustments in PSE and Aperture, and also added a light touch in Topaz Adjust.
