Hello All,
Been awhile since my last post, but I have made quite a few trips around Oregon since then. I'll start it off with this shot I took back in July at Indian Beach. This was one of the best sunsets I had ever witnessed on the coast, but of course I haven't visited the coast too terribly often. The folks over on flickr had some mixed opinions about this one. Some thought the horizon looked crooked, some thought it was too imbalanced what with the majority of rocks on the left part of the image, and some thought a panoramic crop might look better. So, I thought I would send it over here and ask the pros what you think? I appreciate your thoughtful comments/suggestions.

Nice shutterspeed for water. There may be more interest in the rocks if they are more distinguishable. I see why you aimed that way, that beautiful lower sky.

The rocks look good to me, but I do agree there is a bit of a CW rotation and that the URC doesn't add. I love the water motion and the color! I keep waiting to get a rock and roll sunset when I'm out with my camera at the coast, but it hasn't happened yet .
