This is superb, I love the way the waves a rippling adding an extra dimension to the image. the morning light works beautifully and isn't it true that the best shots are at the extreme ends of the day - well done, great shot!

You are quite right Andy, doesn't make getting out of bed any easier though! Must admit I did enjoy this session and got quite a few good shots from it.

Thanks for the comment.

Hey Peter. i too would add that i like the way the waves and light interact. the perspective works well. the sky at times looks like the sea too.. good work!

Peter, this is really nice - did you do much post processing to get it to look like this?

Hi Philippa, not too much, just a graduated layer to hold back the sky a bit, adjusted levels and curve adjustment to lighten the water a bit and then selective sharpening on the pier. The rest was down to the rising sun!
