Great colors, mood captured on this image. Maybe consider making this one more of a panoramic shot, by cropping in from the bottom, up to the highest edge of the sand, leaving only the birds and horizon. Could be a more compelling image, placing more emphasis on the birds, who are the STAR of the image! By the way, your shutter speed appears to have been spot on as well, nice job!
@ggshearron That’s such a great suggestion! That diagonal patch of sand is a distraction but I didn’t want to lose the pier and flag above so left it in when I cropped. I will try cropping as you suggest and see how it looks. I appreciate you taking the time to give thoughtful feedback 😊
