Pretty cool...i really like long exposure stuff...must have not been any wind for that last shot...

SimpsonBrothers

Not much wind at all for any of the shots, it was freezing though when there was wind. Before I repositioned the first shot I got taken out by a wave and lost my coffee that was set on the sand. So much for coffee warmth. (Salt water coffee does not taste good btw)

They're all good, but first shot is cracking.

The scene is lighted by the moon?

No, the moon was buried in cloud cover, never saw it. Only light was from the city lights bouncing off the clouds and back down. Would have been awesome if the moon was out though!

really like the first one, but i'm afraid the other two don't do much for me.

Thanks for letting me know. I usually shoot this place as seen in the first shot. The other two shots were an attempt at a new composition.

Yeah, nice series for sure. I favor the first image, very cool perspective and long exposure.

I like the top part of 1.
Like the second best overall, watermark doesn't help it.
I like the bottom part of 3.

I actually like them all, just if I was going to critique.
2 is my favorite overall.
Nice job, bet this project was a lot of fun.

I like the first one best, I think the 2nd has a bit too much sky for me (since there is little cloud definition)

I love the beaches around Santa Cruz!
