Empty Beach

I visited Lake Mission Viejo a couple of weeks ago to check out the sunset and took this photo using my 16-35mm lens set at 16mm f/22.  I was trying to convey the emptiness of the beach.  This was processed as a single image HDR and then I added some vignetting.  I'd be interested in any feedback you might have.  Do you like this look or is it over the top?

    I like this look, and the exposure and subject matter do express the vacancy and solitude. I'd be curious to see what it would look like if you added more contrast and saturation on the lifeguard tower.

    Keep playing. I love it when you try new photography tricks like this!!

    I don't think it is over the top, as long as you were trying for an artsy look. I think it is a beautiful way to render the scene. I'm sure it doesn't look this good in real life!

    I don't think it's over the top either. In fact it's very vintage looking...reminds me of the time of the beach boys or Gidget.

    Bill,
    Very Cool! I think it over the top, but it is also really unique.
