TRIED AGAIN STILL NOT HAPPY HAPPY

[Julian de'Courcy]

I think the light could be better in the early morning, when the sun is higher later in the year.
I also ended up taking a few shots across Fistral Beach at Newquay, a beach used for the July Board master's festival and world surfing championships in August each year.

Might be better taken at High tide as well I like the second the best but would have cropped the left edge closer to the rock

Yep - the foreground shadow is slightly distracting - higher sun or a better angle might be worth a look

You put it through TPE to check?

Chris thank you ever so much. What a wonderful gadget TPE is. The first time I have seen it. The location that surrounds the rock is the problem to some extent. Behind me is a large Aquarium which is the shadow. The summer sun being higher will get rid of the shadow. But to have light facing the island later in the year, the sun is well up and will miss that great early or evening light. I had also thought about a high water shot and I will go back when the tide is high at midday.

TPE is perfect for this type of location shoot - glad you liked it
