This is the second of the long exposures I mentioned yesterday, and of the three (maybe four) that I'm going to put up I think this is probably my favourite.

Was just looking at yesterdays and this one popped up! :-) Really nice, cool tones, I liked the long exposure of yesterdays, but I prefer this one with the pier adding more interest.
Great palette!

Putting yourself and your kit, where no camera should ever go ..... lovely shot of a classic pier, and the ND filters came into their own on this shot, good one mate, tonally superior yet again.

Dave is this really only ND filter alone or is there some element of HDR at play here? It is a fantastic image and the framing is perfect. Is it cropped or stitched? It’s just the aspect ratio looks very cinematic.

Nice wide angle view.

csj: don't worry, I wasn't in any danger of getting wet ;-)
Jason: yes, it's just a couple of ND filters and some masked Curves - no HDR. As for the aspect ratio: it's cropped from the original 3x2. In the original I'd placed the pier in a more central position - to include more of the blurred waves in the foreground, but it didn't work as well as the 2x1 crop.

This is quite a wonderful image you have produced. I look forward to more beautiful works in the future.

The first thing that I said when I saw this was "Oh crike!". A cracking image.

Great wide angle shot, love the soft cool feel to it

Wow..this is beautiful!!!
nice capture, and the crop works out really well
Beautiful tones, I love it.
Thanks all :-)
You're putting out some great work here!
I'm interested in how you acheived this degree of motion blurring. Did you need an ND filter to reduce light?

Steve: I used two ND filters - a .9 (3 stop) filter for the entire image and a .6 (2 stop) graduated filter to further darken the sky.
