A very cool shot of the pier. Is it common that the tide is that far out? Nicely composed and the colors depict a bright summer day. Well done.

    I do appreciate your nice review! Yes, the Irish Sea can go way out, but it can also come crashing in onto the coastline, as it did yesterday.

Nik,
A beautiful picture of the Long Pier in Southport that stretches out to the horizon over the sands of the beach at low tide under a blue sky with high flying white clouds. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

The title suits this photo perfectly. The peer seems to go on forever. I like your composition colours and tones. This guy highlights your subject matter perfectly well done.

What a fabulous shot of this long pier in Southport, England! Your perspective is perfectly captured. I am wondering where the water is! It is an image that makes me think. Well done, sir.

    Your very thoughtful and considered review is much appreciated as is your big 6. The tide at Southport goes out a long way and can hardly be seen easily at some low tides.

Hi Nik.. This would be the perfect shot I would use to teach the concept of size v scale and how to get the long leading lines of mega structures.

Some might argue there is too much sky. I would disagree because you need ample sky to get the impression of size, scale and depth - well done.

The colors are excellent and support a long scale of contrast.

The technical factors are spot on... Bob

As always, your composition is spot on here. My eye is drawn right to the end of that extremely long pier. A lovely sky and excellent clarity giving us so many details to enjoy. I like that it is not overly adjusted in post production, it lets the natural elements of the shot shine through.

I like the perfect place you chose to shoot this exciting picture of the long pier, which appears to reach infinity. The light, colours, and composition have come out well. Thanks for sharing!

a man walks down the pier to the end and stops. Then he starts to hear voices saying.."KEEP GOING!"..lol. it was just a passing thought, nice capture. the clarity is great. the angle of the shot of this long beach with a low tide beach is great. the capture of the light is great. the presentation is balanced and eye interesting to the viewer. good eye and great job overall.

This is an impressive place, and you have pictured it so well. I especially like the great leading lines because of an excellent POV, and the sky is really looks lovely. I also like the fine reflections you have captured in the puddles of water.

The photo is very sharp showing such clear and well defined details in every part of the very long pier. The colors are crisp and clear, and the exposure perfect.

The format and framing is very good and with the pier off to the right, it is a very good balance in the composition. Indeed a great looking and well taken photo Nikman, and with an excellent DOF.
