Here's a few from Alvor in Portugal. Let me know your thoughts. Anything technically wrong etc let me know. Only way to learn! :)

1. View from our balcony using my 300mm lens

2. Slow shutter using ND filter with my tripod sinking into the sand as it got hit by water.

3. Grabbed this as we came in from a boat trip.

4. Saw this photo and managed to get a good shot. Ideally would of liked to hang around on the boat for the sun to be a bit lower but i wasn't in control of the boat so you get what your given don't you.

5. Spotted this guy on the break water looking out to see as we sailed out to see and it made a great shot i thought.

agree e with all the above, especially no.2, a bit of the bottom transforms it.

I would crop in heavily on the pot belly guy in the last one, great image.

Hi Simon,

The simplicity of #2 makes for a quite fantastic image IMO. Maybe a tad off the bottom so it isnt so central.
If i purchased "art" that is something i would certainly have hanging from my walls.

Love it.

Thanks that means a lot!

I will have a look at that tonight at cropping a bit more off the bottom. Theres a few more of the beach and rocks on my flickr account now which i will hopefully post later.

Thanks for the feedback!

Unfortunately its already heavily cropped as i was at 300mm on my zoom lens already. Plus i didnt want to crop out the light house as gives more context on where he is. But i will take a look tonight and see how it looks.
