outer banks, north carolina Before the darkness . . .

sunset approached.

Despite high noise (high ISO?), this is a very nice image! I like the color and the details (birds, waves, etc..). Perhaps, I'ld crop out the left edge, as it is a bit distracting and doesn't add to the rest of the composition. nice work, Lev

Thanks, Lev. ISO 800 in a four-thirds sensor camera. I might try a little bit of noise control at some point. 

Martin,

My eye was attracted to the distant birds. Often, noise reduction can diminish the finer details that are effective to the scene. So care should be taken with any post processing noise control.

The details of your image should include camera/lens  and the settings used to capture the image.

I like the image, but I do not rate images without knowing the details employed.

Regards,

Mike

Hi Martin. Gentle pastel colours and the sweep of waves and clouds echoed in the bird "wave" as well An armchair comment small as it is .. could the left hand corner top be muted and the blob of cloud above the horizon be adjusted? It is your work and I respect that Neat! Regards miken

Any and all comments welcome, Mike, even those from the armchair. Good suggestions. Thanks, Martin
