Cityscape Manhattan Beach Pier

Manhattan Beach Pier · 02:12 PM

More fiddling with old pics.

This one looks mysterious to me.

Bonus pic.

You must've cropped the first to hell, I can tell. I like the second one the best, it's a gorgeous shot.

AussieTrev · 08-04-2012, 02:55 PM

I second that the second one is really nice.

GeoJerry · 08-04-2012, 03:16 PM

Thanks guys.... and no, the first one is the entire original picture, no cropping.

Nice shots, I like the second better as the pier leads your eyes to the ocean.

Rupert · 08-04-2012, 05:01 PM

The second one is a very interesting and fine shot...a lot of mood in it! Great colors too!

Regards!

That is one gorgeous bonus shot you captured. Well done.

GeoJerry · 08-05-2012, 11:21 AM

Thanks to eaglem, rupert, and slowpez. :-)
I liked the mystery of the first shot, but I guess #2 wins!

That second one is Great. Nice work

I know I left a comment yesterday but it's not here. hmmm very strange, like that first photo I commented on. I wondered about the apparition and marveled at how much more the camera can see than the photographer. What was it, do you know? And of course the second is a gorgeous shot, with great composition and amazing colours.

Thanks! We get sunsets like that every so often, and I'll run down to the pier and grab it.

Thanks! On the first one I used a very slow shutter speed as someone walked by to give the picture some motion and mystery. I liked the way it turned out except for I wish it was a little sharper.
