Sunset over the Fleet
11th January 2011
Dorset Landscape & Seascape photography
Sunset of the Jetty, the Fleet.

I headed out to what promised to be a great sunset tonight, but as the sun dropped lower in the sky, the high cloud dispersed and the lower cloud thickened. It was a low tide at the Fleet which could have been great with a colourful sky, but it wasn't to be.
I used the Lee Big Stopper again tonight to add some movement to the clouds and to smooth out the ripples on the water. I then decided it would be a much better shot as a black white, so I converted it using Silver FX Pro.
Taken using Nikon D90, ISO 100, Sigma 10-20mm at 11.5mm, F9, 5 minute exposure.
