It was inspired by David Nightingale (of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chromasia.com\/\">Chromasia<\/a> fame)&#8217;s rather inspirational beachcombing photos.<br \/>\nI never got round to processing it at the time, despite being a longtime subscriber of his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chromasia.com\/training\/\">online tutorials<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>However, while watching David present his <a href=\"http:\/\/www.creativelive.com\/courses\/dramatic-images-practical-hdr-david-nightingale\">free CreativeLIVE weekend<\/a> (Day two today), my creative and photographic nerves have been well and truly prodded.<br \/>\nSo while he discusses various viewer-submitted photos, I decided to revisit a shot to turn my hand to a couple of things I have learned today.<\/p>\n<p>If you are a fan of Chromasia&#8217;s work, then tune in to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.creativelive.com\/live\">CreativeLIVE<\/a> and watch. It&#8217;s incredibly fascinating to watch someone in his comfort zone&#8230;..someone who I have photographically followed and admired for a number of years.<\/p>\n<p>For those that are interested, here is the layer composition.
