Padstow II

0363 - England, Cornwall, Booby's Bay Panoramic HDR

The sun setting over the unusually named Booby's Bay, a beach found near Padstow in Cornwall. This shot was taken on the walk back to the camp site after a long day at another beach.

A HDR panoramic shot taken with my point and shoot, a Panaonic Lumix DMC-TZ10 (I was too worried about sand to take my DSLR to the beach that day). Three lots of three different exposure images were stitched and exported to an EXR file using Hugin. The resulting file was tonemapped and adjusted using Photomatix. The final editing was performed using Adobe Lightroom and GIMP.
