    Beautiful! Is this out on the coast or on the sound?

    Only nitpick is that the horizon looks a degree or two off horizontal (for some reason that's always the first thing I notice about landscapes). Tweak that and I think you have a winner. B&W works superbly with all the grey tones. Love it.

    No critique required here, this is very nice.

    As far as the horizon not being level-I agree that it isn't but the line of surf is so it is kind of picking one or the other.
    No, I DON'T need that.

    Hmmm.. I am still trying to get used to black and white sunsets (been trying for 20 years). The negative space is interesting, as are the people walking out of the frame.

    A very nice moment in time! I would like to see the horizon straightened up and the sky not so blown out. Otherwise, nice composition.

    Thank you for the nice words. Taken at Cannon Beach Oregon last weekend.
