cliffs at dawn - Sydney, NSW

Hey guys,

Well, in another post in the midst of this great community Hummungus challenged me to submit some photos of black swans, seeing as I am from Western Australia - I happen to think the creatures are a little ugly, so instead I'll post some snaps from when I happened to find some plans fall through and I was thus awake at dawn on my holidays in Terrigal, NSW and armed with a camera. I will also confess, I can be a bit bad at getting my horizon straight!

    I like the comp of this, it really makes the cliff seem massive. The horizon can be straightened easily enough, and I tweak of contrast would help a bit. I personally would clone out the fence at the top, if you aren't against that sort of thing.

    Nice work overall, thanks for posting it. thumb.gif

    Amazing how eyes pick up on different things, I didn't even notice the fence! We can blame the horizon error on the grounds I am never up that early but some help with Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 to work out how to straighten it would be greatly appreciated.

    Not so familiar with Elements 2 but there's generally something like image -> rotate. Sometimes called tranform? It's probably only a degree or so, nothing major. After you rotate it, you'll have to crop it slightly.
