Hi Dan

I like the idea, but the image seems a little dark (especially in the hills), and you can really feel the blue cast from the ND.

Did you get your feet wet?

Thanks matt, I didnt think ti looked to dark, might be my monitor, ill take a look at lightening it, the blue is wierd, shot at 6100k, and had my kood nd grad on wich isnt to bad on the cast, might look at correcting that too,

I did not, Was stood on the Pier at the time,

It has the makings of being another great shot, Dan, but like Matt has suggested it needs a little bit of work just to help it realise it's full potential.

Had a quick go,
Warmed the image up to remove the blue, and lightend the cliff face and the Grass behind it a tad,
it looks better to me now,
All using my New graphics tab too, caught on pretty quickly with it,

I've been looking at this shot over the past day or so because something wasn't sitting right for me. I even took to t'internet to look at photos of the area you were in so try and pin it down. I've decided that it is that the cliff is too central. and perhaps would be great with a wider angle/further away. Technically the rest of the show is great Dan and a lovely location.

By the way, the tweaks were a good move, and of course, the above are only my humble opinions ... 8-)

Thanks jimmy, i see what you mean, it was as wide as i could go with my lens, and any further back and i start to get the pier in the shot, a previous post in the crit sect shows a different composition wich i prefer but it was far to dangerous to acheive that the other day,
I can see the improvemnts have worked,
Thanks for your comment jimmy,
