It's taking a while to sort through all the chaff to get to the gems from my week of snorkeling. Here are a few more I just finished. Thanks to the comments on the last set I looked for those that separated the turtle from the background to find these.

I've now been home long enough to process some RAW images on my computer (not iPad like the last ones). Color balance is tricky - I've been trying extra yellow and magenta to off set the blue and green underwater.

Not sure if this is worth keeping/sharing, overall does the centered horizon and the green foreground work for you, in other words what makes or breaks this shot for you?
Somewhere along the Oregon Coast
I recently saw some panning shots of birds in flight, or just taking off, where the wingtips are slightly blurred conveying motion. I thought I'd try it one day on the beach - like most new techniques there is a definite learning curve. The only birds around happened to be very, very fast and...
Turbulent Seas...
Cape Arago sticks out far enough to get this view, so windy that had to park the camper nose to the wind to keep from blowing over...

I took a number of shots as this eagle flew by, but the bird in this shot with the sea-stack in good position wasn't sharp so I copied it from another in the sequence, enlarged it a bit, and pasted the sharp bird over the blurred.

Like many of you I love trees and am always on the lookout for one that stands out that I want to revisit in different moods. These shots were taken over a 3 day period of a tree on a sea stack at Point of Arches in Olympic National Park.

Yes, the West Coast, North American, probably Norcal. Not sure which trip I pulled this from and I'm to lazy to look.
I like the green sea and the blueish sky, but the side light steals the show. If I may, what's your opinion of the color?
Doesn't matter if I take or not home a good shot, many a times I come back home without even pressing the shutter and question myself if I go hike because of photography or if I photograph because of hiking but, at the end of the day, who cares...
One of my favorite easy access beaches in Olympic National Park, just far enough of a walk to not normally be over crowded. These 3 girls were the last people I saw that day, glad they walked through. I quite enjoyed being the last one though and made my way back to the car by headlamp.
Though upon further review, this shot was from 15 or 20 minutes earlier I think. But it's the one I grabbed first to process, I will have to look through later and see what I was shooting from that spot.
This is on the very south end of Laguna Beach accessed from the 1000 Steps Beach, Ryan had...
Some have stayed at the Bandon Beach Motel, a perfect but modest place for photogs to take advantage of it's close proximity to the beach, especially after camping for a while...
