Sunset at the lighthouse
I caught an amazing sunset at Lime Kiln Point State Park in Washington!
Considering how much I wrote for that last post, I think I will keep this one pretty short. On that summer trip, we spent about a week on San Juan Island off the coast of Washington State. One evening we made our way over to Lime Kiln Point State Park. Obviously there is a lighthouse there, but the main attraction is that it's a fabulous place to watch for passing whales.
Sadly, we never saw any whales that day, but I couldn't really complain considering the awesome sunset that arrived! I stood on a rock outcropping and fired away for quite a while as the light changed and got more intense. It was beautiful, and I was surprised that there were only a few people around. I was the only photographer standing there and firing brackets into the sunset.
All 4 of these photos are 3 exposure HDR's which were combined in Photomatix with filters applied in Color Efex Pro and final touch-up in Lightroom.
