Sunset in La Jolla, CA
A Tuesday evening in Winter after a storm (and by storm, I mean just enough rain to rinse off the car) is a perfect time to be in La Jolla! Parking was a breeze and the sky…oh, the sky was brilliant! I have several photos to share with you over the next week or so, but this is my favorite!

I spent A LOT of time processing this image. It is an 8-exposure HDR captured with my Canon 7D and Canon 24-105 L IS lens (tripod mounted using my Induro Tripod and Really Right Stuff Ballhead/L-plate). My settings were f/7.1, ISO 100, and shutter speeds ranging from 1/4000 to 1/25.
Processing was done in Lightroom, Photomatix Pro, Photoshop, Topaz Adjust, & Topaz Detail.
In case you haven’t heard, Adobe has once again opened up the Photoshop Photography Program @ $9.99/month to anyone! (no previous Photoshop purchase required). Get the details here. I finally signed up in December and have been thrilled with it. Lightroom has been the core of my workflow for years and I’m getting better every day with Photoshop. Its a big program with amazing capabilities!
