Sunset from Rocky Point 2017

This gallery is a set of sunset views of Tampa Bay taken from the restaurant patio behind the Bay Harbor Hotel at the east (Tampa) end of the Courtney Campbell causeway. One does not have to travel far from Tampa airport to catch this view, the hotel is within a mile or so of the airport.

I took and retouched the images shown below using a variety of techniques – including three panoramas, an exposure blending using three images, plus the ubiquitous night photo later on.
