D800 18-200mm @ 62mm ISO 200 F16 1/350 handheld

Cloned out the roofs of a couple RV's on the bluff above the beach. Kind of liked how the reflections lead into the picture. Tried all kinds of crops to get the horizon off dead center but none worked.

Very relaxing ocean scene Bob with a very nice reflection and nice mist in the back round.

I like it Bob, I think I've been here. The reflection is great, how often do we get such calm on the WA coast. Colors are perfect and a solid composition.

Love the mood of this bob. Strong comp and excellent processing to preserve the mist in the bg. Beautiful image. No suggestions.

Classic WA coast, Bob. This looks great. Love to follow the water with cloud reflections into the scene. Wouldn't worry about horizon line in the middle of frame, as there is enough of interest going on there, and elsewhere, to disguise its placement. Glad to see you got a beautiful day out there!

I think this looks fine as-is, Bob. Nice, peaceful scene. The horizon being centered doesn't bother me at all.
