I don't see anything wrong with your pictures, but I think you should shoot about 40 minutes to 1 hour earlier so there is more light. You might also climb down to water level and get some better angles.

Other than those two things, nice shots.

Steamers Lane breaks against the cliff I was shooting from. There IS a better location but someone already had it staked out with a BIGGG lens...


And yes I wish I was there an hour or so earlier!!!

I know, that's why I said "Climb" down. There is no beach at Steamers, I've been there. Sometimes if you want "the shot" you have to work for it.

It ain't just going to fall into your lap.

Yeah, I need to be better prepared next time I hit up the beach!!!

A bit gloomy but you can blame that on maw nature.
I agree on different angles.
Keep bringin' em though ... you have good timing.

Cant decide on #2 or #3 ......
