coment and critique please
this was shot on the Oregon coast over the summer. I spent several hours at this location working with the retreating tide and setting sun.

A couple of old photos taken while the Amtrak was stopped - somewhere in Colorado, I think?
(And yes, I like that the vertical leans!)

Black Leopard
This female has arrived at Hamerton. This place rescues animals from all over the world, mainly endangered species, and they breed when they can.

I've photographed Ady a few times now. We get better each time as a team. This image was a fave from our latest session. I hope you like it to.

Hi Lane,
The three sea stacks make a nice composition. If you had gotten closer / longer lens they would be more prominent and the unessential stuff would be better minimized. The shore on the bottom left corner is a distraction. The long exposure does a nice job of smoothing the water and I like the moon position over the largest sea stack.

here is another from that day that has more fore ground subjects. again with a long exposure. 20mm nikkor UD.
I prefer this one myself. The stones in the foreground make some nice leading lines to the sea stacks but there's something about the sky that lets both of these images down IMO. I'm wondering if a B&W conversion would lift this? I'm looking at the stack on the far right and thinking that might make for a good shot if you isolated that one and shot it in portrait? Just a thought.
