Lake Macquarie

I was fishing late one afternoon on Lake Macquarie NSW recently and just had to put the fishing rods down and pick up the camera ...

A lovely sunset. Number 2 is the winner here for me.

I friggen love the orange cloud at top left in shot 1, cool little detail.
But I'm going with iggy here, shot 2 for me as well

Thanks guys :)

I too love that little orange cloud in number 1. Normally I wouldn't be fussy with the sun right in the middle, however it seems to work here. I think because of the boat coming in from the left (as the subject), and that orange cloud to draw you away from that sun. In Number 2, I find the line from the wake of the boat just seems to bother me somehow (without it I would really like that second one)

Hard to not have awake behind a moving boat asnow ;)

Thanks for looking and commenting :)

Oh wow, superb. Love the mood and composition .. very nicely done

Exactly what I was thinking...well done MA!

Thank you Matt and Casil :)

Both VERY nice MA, but i'll be different as in #1 for a fav here. Love the flowing lines and just amazing light.
