Great job! Although The ghosts are more likely mistakes from the post-processing that you decided to keep. The sticklike pier is also distracting to this photo.
Is the brilliant orange on the rocks metallic, or does it just look that way? The construction on the shore keeps me looking - wondering just what it is. A very interesting shot.
Wonderful blues and oranges and I like the ghost theme. I realize the wooden pier serves a purpose here but it would be interesting to see this image without the distraction of the rails.
This would have recieved a higher score from me if you had managed to avoid having the people on the bridge. The foreground is amazing. Great colour, and I love the misty look.
