    Full of foreboding atmosphere and well produced. Composition wise I have to say that that umbrella thingy is badly needed as otherwise we would only have the horizontal line of boardwalk. A good shot nonetheless.

    It has potential. I think this is a situation where a little color could spice it up though.

    Below's a quick expt to see... I added a little green to the sky and increased its contrast. I also added a little blue to the foreground water. I'm not sure if it's better, just different.

    Juzzus, I like this straight like it is. I must say good work on the sky, you most likely pulled out as much as you could from it. Tom make an interesting point about the "umbrella". It's definately a key point here.

    No offense GB, but I disagree with your inclusion of colors. I much prefer the simplicity of a purely b&w picture in this case.

    I agree with Seb; as it is is a great shot. Wonderful colors and very dramatic.

    Well done,
