North beach Jetty sunset

Hi guys, i was faced with some pretty bad conditions Saturday. I still managed to head out to this location with the Lee big stopper filter. I managed this 2min exposure. As i said, conditions were pretty stormy so i had to do a little work to it. CC welcome...

Hi Marc, I'm having trouble with this one. (Keep tilting my head)
The colours and concept works but the row of bolts in the foreground is very distracting, maybe using the perceptive crop tool could pull it back into line?

Cheers.

Hi gaz, i see what you mean. I missed that and glad you pointed it out and it makes me wonder how that happend as it wasnt a panorama. Will give it a crack tonight

Beautiful light and treatment as Gaz says.

If you were going for total symmetry, then having the bolt lines horizontal could be worth a try. Just tried it and it only takes a few seconds. Looks ok.

But it doesn't worry me too much 'as is' though - seldom is everything perfect.
