Dificult Conditions

Be careful out there! It is an exceptional photo.

An excelent photo made by an excelent photographer in an excelent place. Very nice.

It's a wonder you could gather your concentration to take this shot under those circumstances.Lovely capture Jose.

Beautiful image masterfully done. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice, José. I hope you did this as the tide was going out.

An aventurous shot, beautifully framed and taken. The different elements are interesting and nicely presented, but there is something odd about the stones in the foreground - they don't have the same clarity as the rest.

Many thanks to all for the comments.
Tony, below are the two raws used in the fused image and no proccesing here. You can see that the rocks have different brightness and the relative ratio in this brightness is very similar in the raw images and the fused. Many thanks for your comment

I like the gold tones of the stacks across the middle against the bluer sky.

Stunning!
Excellent framing, clarity...and love the cloudy sky.

perfectly executed and extremely interesting. Congrats on EP.

Awesome and intriguing Jose! Really captivating! Lot's of comp and interest every where I look..You have worked these coasts so long now and it shows in how you have developed a critical eye for their beauty. Well done and congrats on the EP..

The only thing I see to look at maybe doing in an alternate way is the line that is formed at the edge of the water where it rolls up on the beach. Looks a little odd...maybe abrupt...would be what I'm trying to say. I'm thinking the slower shutter speed is the culprit making the water more "soupy". It's not anything major I suppose, but if it were mine......... and how anally nit-picky I can be sometimes........

The other thing is I can just vision this shot with a thunderstorm happening, with violent dark skies, and LIGHTNING!!!!  Are you able to access this area as easy as easy as it seems that you can? I would if you definitely go back for the many other sky options. Maybe seasons too. Perhaps make a story book type presentation out of the scene.


Is there a name for that rock formation??

Great work Jose!

Many thanks to all  for the comments. Paul, that rock is in Campiecho beach (Asturias in the north of Spain) and no name. With low tide is very easy to get here but then the water don't cover this area and you'd see a chaos of rocks. Definitely much better at high tide but then the access is very dangerous specially if the sea is rough. Not recommended unless you want to change the camera
On this beach only on one occasion I have risked to get the next photo ... and that day almost got to change the camera. Many thanks for your comment

Oh man I like this second photo!! I probably would put my camera in a housing and  don some wetsuit gear and brave a storm with that high tide. But then again we might be reading about me in the news. But what a terrific spot to keep working and get so many variants! Your lucky.. Landscapes with drama are hard to  come by where I live.

Thanks for the follow up info Jose....
