Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied.

Here's a shot of the locals catching bait at Redcliffe for a big nights fishing while the tides are right. Comments welcome.

I'd agree!

I've sat here for a while and thought "if it didn't have the fishermen in it, would it be as good?"

answer - it'd still look good, but not with the same impact - the ghostly fishermen add that "something" to it.

The image is stunning! The ghost fisherman certainly adds to the story...to me it represents the generations of fishermen past who did exactly the same thing a long time ago :) Is that too shcmaltzy? :roll:

It'd be interesting to see it as a pano with the pier right in the middle, but might lose the effect as the water certainly helps.
