I have managed to get out with the camera quite a bit this weekend already & been blessed with some favourable conditions. Hopefully I will be able to fit a bit more photography in tomorrow

Here are the shots so far.

I love the first picture. Very dramatic. The third is very confusing. Haven't any idea what I'm looking at but very well done.

Sometimes I'm serious and sometimes not, but I consider sarcasm an artform. Which is it today?

Love the first one. I'm glad the forum doesn't have an 800px height restriction.

I especially love the last one ( I assume it's some kind beach erosion protection device ), but annoyingly the non-horizontal horizon bugs me

Tom, the last one is great! Love the feeling.

But I agree Smeggy about non-horizontal horizon. It's not much but enough to be disturbing.

That first one is a stunner and reminds me of the work of one of my favourite artists in Cornwall - whose name currently escapes me

Agree with Smeggy on the last one - love it but I too am a little bit anal about straight horizons - especially on water

No matter how many lenses I have owned - I have always needed just one more

Thanks fro the comments. I hadn't noticed the horizon in the third but have now sorted it!

First shot is powerful. I love it. Third shot, too, is pleasing - and its second incarnation not only shows a straight horizon but also a touch more contrast, which improves it.
