This is the last shot I will show you of Wheal Kitty mine (thanks for the name goes to thegraduate!) I like this shot as its not often you can catch nice reflections in the SEA!!
I didn't get my feet wet to take this shot - the tide was very uneven at this point and was much lower where I was stood...
I had to time the picture just right after a wave had come up so that the water was flat enough to reflect...
I like that you can see some waves over to the left

PP work - I did remove another small building from the horizon to the right of the mine - it just looked like a blob!

Great way to end the series. Well done...the mine pictures have been interesting and enjoyable to see.
This is almost like panning out at the end of a movie...a fitting way to close...
A very worthwhile theme and a tribute to another way of life. Imagine the buzz that these miners must have got when they cloked off work on a fine summer evening...

Hi, Kat.

Another very nice picture of this tin mine. Wonderful reflections too.

My only criticism is that it looks as though there is a little haze at the left end of the cliffs: I don't know if that's perhaps due to some lens flare - were you shooting a bit into the sun?

Lukasz has done a fine workshop but I think he's maybe overdone the contrast a wee bit and made the reflections a bit too harsh - I like the dreamy look of the reflections in your original picture. The frame, too, has shrunk the picture quite a bit.

Very well done!

Best Wishes,

John.

Hi Kat,
Excellent shot, nice colours and I like the position of the mine in the shot, your timeing was perfect with a great reflection, I have done a little WS for you, hope you like it.

A good play of diagonals. The building with the chimney adds the little extra needed to make one look again. Well done, Kat, and TFS! - Cheers, Cordelia :)

superb pov here, tfs and like the mirror effects!

Great landscape shot, and 10/10 for the POV and capturing the reflection of the mine. The muted colours work well.
Thanks for sharing
Mark

Excellent perspective and composition. Beautiful glassy rflection from the wet sand, nicely done.
