Pier Pictures.

Good shots both. I particularly like the 1st image. Where is the fill light on the supports coming from in the 2nd image?


Perhaps you could try darkening the centers of the lights a bit, they come across as too hot.

Thanks all for your critique. I think what disappointed me the most about the second picture was that the lights caused "hot spots" in the water. Especially the area where the water was breaking. I thinkI can probablyavoid this next time, by going to a pier that doesnt have any lights on it.

Where is the fill light on the supports coming from in the 2nd image?

There was a flood light on the underside of the building at the "beach" end of the pier that shined out towards the ocean. I didnt plan on it being there, but it kinda had an interesting effect on the final outcome. I will try darkening the light sources so they don't seem so hot. That sounds like a good idea.
