My third and maybe the last photo, from Art of Nature – Teluk Bahang, Penang. This photo was taken around 19.45 – Everyone was packing to go home at that time, but not me. I was still taking photos. 🙂

Details & PP: This is a single RAW file which at first I took in monochrome style on my camera. Then I change the picture style back to ‘Landscape’ in DPP and the file was transfer into photoshop. First, I did some basic adjustments like adjusting the levels, brightness/contrast, increasing saturations to get the perfect tones and then I mask it on certain part. After that, I use a lot of clone tool and clone on the sand part due to uneven surface and some footprints. Lastly, some final enhancement have been done like sharpening the image, reducing noise levels and also adding the watermark.

This is my recent work from an outing with a group call Art of Nature at Teluk Bahang, Penang.

At the time we arrive to the location, not much colors on the sky, almost colorless, then I decide to go for a monochrome shot on camera and longer exposure to create dramatic photo.

It was a good outing session and it is nice to meet new friends, which some I already know from Facebook, but never met on the real world. Unfortunately for all of us, the magic hours didn’t come out on that day.

Teluk Bahang Dam, Penang

A view of Teluk Bahang Dam and it’s walkway. Actually this shot was taken around sunset hour, as you can see the sun is setting down behind those hills.

Tech spech: 3 shots of bracketed exposures taken in Aperture-Priority mode at F13 ISO100. I do some minor adjustment in DPP and then all three exposures were transfered to Ps. Each of the exposures were combined together and manually blended. After that, I do a fews tweaking like adjusting the levels, increasing the brightness on certain areas, some dodging and burning, increasing the saturation, and few sharpenings to increase the dynamic range of the photo. Oh, finally as usual the last step is the watermarking! 😀
