Seventh Place (Tie)
Sunset at Kits Beach by Tyler Coen

Kits Beach, Vancouver, BC Canada

Interesting idea for a challenge. For low-light shots, I often shoot a few at 3200iso to check composition, as I did here.

The high chroma noise actually has an interesting effect - it pulls the narrow band of red /orange colors in the center both into the sky and down to the water's edge...it makes for an entirely different type of shot than the clean original - and not an uninteresting one.

Throw away the other shots that you took later, this is high octane colour noise. I want to go stand on one of those rocks and start singing Frank Zappa to the crabs.
