Haven't done any night time photography for a while, maybe it shows? Taken at South Curl Curl beach. Comments and criticisms welcomed:

Love the combination of colours Geoff

Love the soft pastle colours, pffff out of pratice... pull the other one Geoff.

I see you took the 85mm off finally, but ISO 160, was there a reason for that, or was it accidental ?

 LOL Craig! I haven't done a night exposure in a long time.
The ISO 160 was more experimental than anything else.

I really wish I still lived on the other side of that headland ... Curly and Dee Why are beautiful places to live

Geoff,

You really do love South Curly Pool don't you?

To be honest at first glance I didn't like the contrast between the artigficially lit pool and the natural ocean. The longer I looked at it though the more I liked it. There's a sense of warmth in the pool, making it look like a little man made haven from the cool, unpredictable ocean.

In any case, I like it now!

Very nice shot Geoff
I like the contrast in the colours, but would try a pano crop with a small amount off the bottom and the sky cut right down.

Just tried that onscreen with tissue box and a bank statement (that sounds wierd when you read it back...) and I think you may well be onto something!
