Nice set, tones and composition all well thought out

Our office was located above sealevel restaurant last year before we moved to walsh bay, cronulla is so familiar. It's pretty photogenic especially at night where you can see airplanes pass over the moons reflection on the water.

I really like #4. So pastel tones. Possibly leave a touch more sky above cold help. Nice photos.

Regards,

Some nice shot there. I really quite like symmetry of no. 2! Well done, keep on posting.

I like all the shots, but I would treasure #3. A glorious uncrowded wave at Cronulla, and on a weekend!!! A beautiful and rare shot indeed. :)

I really like the composition of 1 & 2, 3 lacks little interest but 4 as someone has already said exhibits some lovely soft tones. :D

Thanks for the comments guys.

Oneputt, I put in no 3 for the surfers amongst us. Being from the GC I expect you get bored by seeing perfect waves like this :wink: but I agree that the shot is a bit dull. Jordan, unfortunately what this shot doesn't show well is that the wave was only about 2 foot and it a quite unsurfable part of Cronulla off the rocks.

krpolak, I'm happy and a little bit suprised by the positive feedback on 4. I kind of liked it but wasn't sure of what the reaction would be. I took it simply because the colours appealed to me and the trick was to get an angle without any distractions. As it was I had to clone out a power line (you can still see its shadow across the building). I agree with the sky comment, in fact I'm still not happy with this shot and will revisit it next time I go down that way. I just feel something is missing, maybe a bike against the wall or something like that to give it some focus.

Thanks again for looking.

Shot 2 is a stand out for me, then followed by shot 1, I really like them.
To be honest with shots 3 and 4 something is missing.. can't put my finger on it.. but they feel a little incomplete to me...
