Don't lose hope - you're on the right track !!

I really like this image Mark and I think it was made for mono

I am not just trying to return a compliment but really mean it

Mmmm, this works well Mark, love the detail in the posts and the water is just right. Have you tried a square crop, from the top left?

The groyne gives an excellent, strong structural element to the image, Mark. Lovely tones as well. A square crop might be worth looking at too... as a variation.

A GEA! You must be doing something right Mark!
Time to believe in yourself.
Love this in mono and I do like that little bit more
subject matter with the groynes.
Although people are suggesting a square crop, I think this is good as it is
because the size of the groynes supports the empty space.
Also you don't want to loose the detail on horizon.

Nice one, Mark.

I think you could easily afford tor crop this as the top of the sky is not really adding much and is a little noisy.
Try a 16:9 crop from the bottom up.
I think you'll be surprised at how much it will improve the composition - would make the the posts much mor prominent an dynamic to counter balance the long exposure.

A though, anyway!
Congrats on your GEA Grin

Cheers,
Bill

ps: Just noticed some are suggesting a square crop - erm...I just like to be different! Wink
