Thomas nice colors and interesting composition.

Thanks chassis.

Since that image was taken a rift developed across the foreground prompting the park service to place warning signs and mark the area off limits. Then one day the whole area broke off along the rift and tumbled to the sea and beach below. I suspect that the headland erosion visible on the right will continue and one day Drakes Bay and the Pacific will be the same.

Well done Bryan, great palette. What time of day was the image made, and how long was the exposure? I want to do some blue hour stuff myself.

Nice work Nodda. The second image is best for me.

Thanks chassis. It was about 15 or 20 minutes after sunset, but more importantly it was one of the haziest days I've ever seen. Normally, on a clear day, the sky here is really drab after sunset. I've admired others' shots during the post-sunset "blue" hour but never seen such a view. I stayed a little longer than I normally do as the colors this time were fantastic from the lingering light filtering through the haze. Being color negative film though, I did bring out the blue and magenta a bit more in the scan than what was straight off the film, but this is probably a bit like how Provia would've rendered if I had shot that. The hike back was almost pitch-black, and I hadn't brought a flashlight (my cell phone sufficed) as I hadn't intended on staying that late!

I need to go back up there in the winter and shoot some stars. Sadly, while the park is officially open till 10pm, apparently some nosy folks at the edge of the park periphery call the cops if they see flashlights up at the lookout past dark, and the cops will come throw you out, according to another photographer I spoke to up there. GA unfortunately has a lot of that kinda thing. So I'll have to be stealthy.

Edit: forgot to add, the exposure was around 8 seconds IIRC.

Nice, I thought it was Velvia at first glance.
