You've stitched this one very effectively, and I think the composition is nicely balanced, the focal point (the castle) following the rule of thirds. The dark clouds give it a dramatic mood, balanced by the lighter reflections. Nice photo!

Good work for a 1st landscape. The darkened sky adds drama to the picture (but is not refected in the water).

wow, first landscape-shot, really, adrian?!
this is really great, perfectly stitched,
a superb dramatic sky with dark clouds,
a terrific depth - the beach seems endless,
and the "required" 1/3 - 2/3-composition.
i don´t know if it really is necessary, but the castle could be just a bit lighter.
well done & take care, thor.

Congratulations,

A wonderful shot, Adrian. The dramatic sky and POV as well as the colours are phantastic.
Somehow it reminds me at the opening scene of Roman Polanskis " Macbeth " where the three witches make theit weird plan.

Hi Adrian
I dont think you have to worry about your creativity with shots like this one and your previous one.
Excellent use of colour, your sky looks forboding especially with the castle in the photo.
beautiful,

It is beautiful..not an attempt.
Looks like a painting. Same critique as kateb. Only one negative remark: Where is the eagle?:-)
Great work!!

Hi Adrian, good shot here of the castle and beach. The sky looks so dramatic over the water. I feel the horizon is tilted to the left a tad - that is something you much double-check on seascapes. I live by the sea and I always have to even my photos up.
But otherwise, I think you have posted an excellent seascape here. Very well done,
Janice

What dramatic photo! The sky - has unusually well turned out! And it so contrasts with quiet water.
Very much it was pleasant to me.:)

Hi Adrian,
Cracking landscape. The grads have really added mood to the image. Nice crop. What type of ND's are you using looks like nice neutral colour out of them.
Cheers

Hi Adain,
Thanks for the link. You posted this one when I was on vacation and TL is so large that photos get lost really fast. The composition is jsut perfect with great balance in sky and earth. I just love the reflection of the sky on the wet beach. Great stitch and excellent exposure. The LP has so many great details,
TFS,
Niek

Hi Adrian,
I really like this unique landscape composition. Exposure looks great. Colors and detail are excellent with the spot on exposure. Amazing sense of depth and distance. The dramatic clouds add alot to the shot.
I have not been here much lately, but more and more TN members showing up. Now you can post some stuff from Dallas! Anything goes here! Lets see that creative streak!
