nighttime photo excursion

[afoto]

I was hoping for some sunset colour this evening, but had no luck so I decided to wait until dark.
c&c appreciated!

I like the colour of the lights reflecting in the water, and I like the way the rock and pier run parallel, but is it to busy?

I used a soft 0.6 graduated nd filter on the sky.

A lovely shot, as always.

That foreground rock is very interesting. It almost seems animated to me, like a large seal lifting itself up. Lots of visual cues leading you right to the seal's head.

Well, that's what I see.

Wonderful. What was your exposure time for this? I love it.

This is great! I really wish I had a shot like this of my own- I don't have the talent yet or the beautiful location lol

afoto; this is very good! I also expect to see some life in the large rock in the foreground. It looks a little like a California Grey whale in its shape.

Thanks for posting.

Nice mood in this. Not busy for me, I like the pier leading out to the background.
