The jade cove. Seascape of a rocky cove in Sardinia, Italy.
The jade cove, south western Sardinia, Italy. The bright light of the afternoon reveals the colors of a rocky cove, from the lush green of some small bushes, to the tones of jade and turquoise of a crystal clear sea.
To represent the movement of the clouds pushed gently by the wind, I’ve used a 10 stops ND filter, while to empasize the clearness of the water close to the rocks I’ve used a circular polarizer. The strong light coming from beyond the promontory has required the use of a graduated ND filter, so that the brightness of the upper part of the frame could be managed by the camera sensor, falling into its dynamic range capability.
