This image was captured during a recent visit to Bandon, Oregon. The scene is a foggy sunset over the Coquille River. I was riding with fellow NPN member, Mark Muller, and as we were driving on the bridge over they river I saw this incredible scene. Mark did a U turn in the middle of the road to keep me from jumping out of the car. I love images that are pastel and soft and dreamy, so I’m definitely happy to have had the opportunity to see and capture this scene.
Chris, this is incredible. I love the soft look to everything. And in my favorite place too! I could retire in Bandon and be perfectly happy. Really nice image.
A fantastic image. The colors, tonalities and the soft patterns are really great. Hard to find something to improve here, but if you should do something IMO you could soften a tad the horizontal line close to the upper edge.
Very different and lovely! I’m enjoying the reflection of the cloud in the water. Wonderful colors!
I’d be tempter to add a tiny bit more on top – the thin line of cloud being so close to the edge of the frame creates a tension that conflicts a bit with the peaceful image.
Such a beautiful image @Chris_Baird , and what a fun memory! I mostly remember hearing “Stop the Car!”, and then the rest is a foggy, lavender blur! For me, this is forever “Chris’ Sunset”, and I am happy and fortunate to have experienced this with you.
This is a wonderful image. I love the colors and the fog. No improvements needed.
For myself, I tried a square crop (upper part of course), and like that as well.
