Captain Jim

This was taken on a sailing tour of lake Erie in Marblehead, OH. Captain Jim requested a good photo for his website of him at the wheel of his boat. This was manually merged from two exposures to capture the dynamic range, but due to movement it was a difficult task to merge. I think the results are acceptable, especially for web viewing. Any suggestions or opinions are much welcomed.

Manually merged HDR. Suggestions?

Great shot, I love the birds, the sun setting, sky pattern, and the whole guy thing. I might have tried to use a bouncer and put a little more light on his face, but of course that would mean carrying some equipment on board. For a candid, it's awesome.

Marvelous capture of the beauty of sailing at sunset!! Well done!! As one who has a passion for sailing, I know that feeling!!

Very well done
