Seaham - Best Seat In The House

Hi all,

Just thought I'd share a shot from seaham harbour this morning. Saw the chair further up the beach and thought I'd incorporate it into the sunrise.

I like it. What an odd place to find a chair

Love it. And love the remdom stuff one finds around the place!

I like this, the top and bottom tones moving towards the middle give the picture a nice depth,
but i would clone out the jet trail, i think it interferes with the overall scene.

Cracking shot! I really like it!

Stunning shot but I also think that you could loose the contrail to no detriment of a great picture.

Yeah, like it. I can't help thinking of the thoughts who ever sat in the chair had.

Tad off the bottom, loose the trail and, for me, 17mm is a tad wide. I'd like to see the lighthouse a bit closer/more prominent, but not to overpower the chair.

Cheers.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Here's a different composition from the same morning, contrail cloned out and maybe a bit more pleasing composition, although the chair is probably a bit central......amazing how two wellies full of water effects your compositional judgement

Loved the first one and I like this one just as much, I like the way the water is flowing around the legs of the chair giving it an air of stability.

Cheers Chris! Much appreciated!

Brilliant shot!

I think the second one just edges it for me, although without the vapour trail I think the first might jump back ahead!
