Start line Marshall at the Sywell Piston & Props meeting yesterday during the drag part of the event. Looks like a healthy occupation to me! Plymouth Superbird warming up its tyres before a run.

#3 - my favourite so far. The softness, and 'pastel' shades of the sea and the sky contrast well with he details of the rocks on the foreshore and the mussels on the groynes.

i think the general consensus is shoot in raw and convert using software, gives you so much more leeway to get what you want

I agree with Michael - a bit more contrast might give it a bit more impact. I'm not adverse to frames, but I think that this one is a bit heavy for the image - maybe just make it a touch narrower?

Not a criticism, but a suggestion - have you tried cropping it to a square (almost) by just cropping out the two rocks on the right, which I think might add predominance to the seaweed?

You do have to decide what sort of head to put on it, or a macro rail if that's your preference, and add that to the cost.
I'd recommend it as it suits what I need, others may have different requirements and I'm sure will post their own views.
