The Featured Image - Southwold, Suffolk
Taken at Southwold in Suffolk, UK on a stormy day in Autumn. The strong easterly wind was blowing off the North Sea. Southwold harbour is very narrow producing large waves which smash against the piers.
We were waiting for the weather to improve having sailed to Southwold the previous day.

I grabbed this handheld
image from the beach using as Canon D30 and a
70-300IS lens.
See this and other images in the East Coast Seascape Portfolio
plus others.

I have added a new
portfolio of close-up images. The Old Wooden
Boat and the Purple Paint Peeling
Shutter were taken in the Dordogne in a small
village called La Cave. The other seven images were
taken in Scotland. All taken on a Canon 10D with
tripod.

Akvis Enhancer Photoshop Plugin
An image enhancement plugin for revealing detail. Enhancer allows detecting details from underexposed, overexposed and mid tone areas of an image. It is really useful when the image lacks detail in either foreground or background.
Enhancer can reveal details in the highlights or shadows without the risk of affecting other areas that you wish to leave unchanged. It works by intensifying the colour transition between adjacent pixels with different colour gradations.
I have been stunned by
the difference it can make to an otherwise flat
looking image.
Read the excellent review at the Digital
Outback Photo Website.
