Deal Beach

Spent a few days around Dover and took this along Deal beach

No bare feet on those pebbles!

I like this, you may get some comments saying the foreground is blurred and you shouldn't have the horizon central, but if a photo works who cares and this photo works.
My criteria is: would I hang it on my wall? And the answer is a resounding Yes

I like this too, although it may be better with the horizon lowered or risen. I like the clever use of depth of field.

Its a horrible beach though

Totally agree - if it works - it works - most rules have exceptions - here is one of them - very nice shot and the depth really draws you in.

For my personal preference - the only thing I would have liked slightly different would have been for the thin band of sea to have contrasted more - but that is just being picky
