Gorgeous. In the past my efforts were spoiled by neglecting to cover
the viewfinder resulting in light leaking in. Makes it worth lugging a
tripod around! I'm inspired to try again.

Lovely work, but is it just my screen or do they have some pretty bad
jpeg artefacts around the edges? They deserve better treatment, so
maybe check your workflow to identify where the quality loss occurs..!

Beautiful landscapes. I need to get the hang of long exposures like
that. Just like Dave I forgot to shut the viewfinder last time and on
top of that I'm using film which starts to respond strangely at multiple
second exposures. Encourages me to play again this weekend.
Just a tip, would it be possible to include a bit more exif data on your
JAlbum site? I'd love to know how long you exposed for, at what ISO,
aperture, etc.
Keep them coming.

expanding the exif data is something I want to do...
I hadn't noticed the jpeg artifacts.. thanks for pointing it out... maybe
they come from the compression factor that I've applied to the jpegs to keep
the image file sizes small. The original tiffs don't show it.

Verrrrry Nice...
The only critique I'd say is more like; the sunset one is the one where we
wish we had just that tad wider lense...
Very nice all the same, well done!

your use of color.

There's an issue of over-processing with all three but it's especially
disruptive on the first you link to. I can understand the reasoning behind
trying to reign-in the dynamic range but in this case it's way too much.
Compositionally they're a little 'safe'. On the second two a much lower
camera position would really help. So would getting right over the surf on
