Incoming Storm Pacifica pier | pacifica, ca

We've been getting hammered with storm after storm lately, so I decided to head out and capture the huge waves, dramatic clouds and beautiful colors of the water.

Everything here was shot on my Fujifilm X-T1 with XF10-24mm and my Lee Filters Seven5 kit with a graduated .6 ND filter.

Here's how I shot these...

  1. I used a Lee Filters Seven5 .6 graduated ND filter
  2. Settings: ISO 400, aperture priority, f/8
  3. Usually I shoot on a tripod, but shot these handheld
Rough water and dramatic sky

Post processing...

This shoot had minimal post processing. I only cropped and adjusted white balance in Lightroom. I usually crop my photos to either 8x10 or 16:9 depending on the composition.
