Taken on/from the Coos Bay Boardwalk. I had a really, really hard time choosing which picture of the lot to enter - I hope I chose the right one. I'm not sure how people will react to the blurry flags, but it's a night shot, so the shutter speed wasn't quick enough to avoid blurring them.
Expecting this to be clobbered because the sky's not pitch black. We'll see.
Editing: Resized, curves, hue/saturation, Neat Image, sharpening, border, cloned out the edge of another boat on the far left.. it was a bit distracting. I can't remember if this was one that I rotated and cropped or not..

I really like this shot. Beautiful glow in the sky highlighting the cloud formation. I like the flags, the water reflection and the boardwalk. Great exposure!
The seat on the right is a little cut off and there seems to be a slight tilt to the left. Minor distractions, but something to look out for next time.
somehow the picture doesnt seem to be in full focus. its a little disturbing because theres very little movement, but just enough to notice it... composition and perspective is very good though. good photographers eye. the fact that you can see the bottom of the water adds a nice touch.
