Default Harbour reflection

One from between the showers. We've had cloudy sunsets all week with our fair share of spring showers as well. By the time Sunday evening came around I wasn't going to give in to the weather again so I grabbed my stuff and headed 10 minutes up the road to St Andrews, Scotland. After half an hour of waiting in the car for the rain to stop this is what I got before it got dark.

Thanks for taking the time to look

Great image. Gives that “calm” feeling. Wonder why the sky looks darker than the actual reflection...

haha

the filter I used might have something to do with that... I could always balance it up a bit better in post. I didn't notice it to be honest

Thanks for the comments guys

Really cool. I like the colors of the boats and houses buildings and how you composed it. I think better matching between the sky and reflection would make it even better.

I think if you did balance it up a bit it would really make the image, right now it looks way too dark. But I'm loving the boats and their reflections

Great capture, only nit would be the darker sky and lighter sky reflection, seems unbalanced, but the colors of the boats are very nice.
