Great shot as usual from you Jadon, although it doesn't look like one of yours, maybe it's because you didn't use your preferred small aperture...
I like the drama of the sea hammering the seafront, but I think I'd prefer it in landscape so I can see where the waves are coming from.
I like all of your shots and it's good to see you with a different but still excellent look.

Congratulations on a cracking shot Jason. Love the way the light is playing on the crests of the waves and spray

Hey Jason. great shot. not so keen on the shot below the steps...being out of focus doesnt sit well with me..however the light is terrific and the waves well caught. i too would prob like to se a landscape shot..

Hi Jason ..another cracker ... these HDR's really brings out details .. and more life like .. I like it the way it is .. but wonder what it would look like with a crop up to what looks like steps .. so there isn't such a long lead in???
Cheers

Hi Merv, thanks for your comments and viewing. The reason for the large aperture was and wait for it..I forgot to change it..LOL, that is a poor excuse, I was shooting seagull shots and drop the Fnumber so to get the fastest shutter speed and I was just about to go and grabbed this before I went home without thinking about Aperture... just the scene,I also didn't do a landscape version, I tried to get back top the same spot today to get some more shots as the weather is great but the police have put an exclusion zone in place and knocked part of the seawall away so that the cranes and diggers can access the beach area for the beached ship the riverdance... but having said that I liked it enough to show you guys...Well thanks for the visit and comments mate.
