The last time I visited here was actually less than 12 months ago, this location lends itself very well to high tide and big swells, unfortunately we had niether but as I always say, ya gotta make do with what you have.

Critique on the following is more than welcome, good bad or fugly!

#2 is looking superb Gerry. The warmth from the halogen adds quite alot to balance this one. Great compo as well b

Also the rails are very nice as well. Nice lines there.

The main thing I noticed was the lack of tell tale nd grads. Looks very balanced and natural. Nice work!

#2 wow! I also took some from around this spot as well (same or similar composition) however my shutter speed wasn't long enough and your PP rocks - I much prefer yours to mine :)

I like #1 as well - perhaps a pity about your shadow

#2 is a sureal effort, very misty like the rocks are floating on it. :up:
#1 ....is that your shadow?
I like the water movement on the green goodness.

No. 2 and No. 3 are superb. No 2 is my favourite! Perfect exposure and very nice composition too.
