Lively colors and I like the coulds (polarizer?).
However, the balance in the iimage is disturbed. The peer is tilted to the right while the horizon to the left. It make my head move right and left all teh time trying to compensate.
A straighter horizon and positioning the pier slightly more off centre would improve, maybe a lower view point, good exposure and added interestt with the gull.
Ya know, if the horizon had been straight, I would have given this a 10 in a heartbeat. But, there's something about this particular angle that doesn't speak to me as an artistic choice. I could certainly be wrong - wouldn't be the first time by any means! This is such a dynamically beautiful shot, that it doesn't need any "gimmicks" to make it better. The tilted horizon is a big distraction, but the shot is so good that it's tough to take many points away. 8
For me, I wish the bird and end of the pier were just a bit more off-centered and the photo itself rotated slightly clockwise. Such beautiful scenery though...wish I was there right now :)
Nice linear line. The bird is almost invisible. I'd love it if the tones were richer, as the setting is so pretty. Maybe adjust curves??? Great reflective quality.
