Description

This was taken in praia da Ursa, Sintra, in the same day as [link] and :thumb66826004:.

It was particularly hard to shoot because the foreground as severely darker than the rock in the background, which made me use three neutral density graduated filters: a hard 0.9 made by Lee, and two soft 0.6 and 0.9 made by Cokin.

I used a small aperture to have a long DOF so that everything would be in focus: from foreground to background.
Sadly, though, the rock in the back didn't turn out as sharp as I'd like it.

This one involved more processing than the most of my shots. I had to remove dust spots in PS, as well as correcting levels, saturation and sharpeness in Apple Aperture.

Hope you like it :)
