[Myxine]

Gorgeous! You have every reason to be happy with this photograph

[StoneNYC]

Nice! Sometimes the terrible reciprocity of Foma100 is actually really useful.

Fantastic Alex.

Myxine - Thanks, I suppose the reason I was asking for other opinions is that because I've lusted after this shot for so long, its likely that I could look past any flaws it may have.

Stone - Too right, This metered as 6 sec F/32.3 I shot it at f/32, 40sec. at 6 sec, this would not have been the same image... I would have had to add another ND filter to gain some exposure time...

Kev - Thanks

The ONLY flaw if you call it a flaw is I don't like how close to the edges of the frame the dock itself is, my eyes want it pulled back SLIGHTLY just a tiny bit, but my images suck compared to this so... I don't really know what I'm talking about... Lol

The original shot was actually composed a little looser than this image, however my film holder has a nice little light leak near the opening that encroached into the picture space.. I had no choice but to crop it tighter

[Jeff Dexheimer]

I think you nailed it. But, you should get some new film holders.

[alexn]

Already got new ones Jeff. just shot the film that was still in the oldies. Got a bunch of neat wooden chamonix holders in the rotation now.

I was thrown by your stated use of two grad filters. I can't see the affects in the pilings, or anywhere. After reading your reply to Stone, I think I see that you meant nd filters. It's really a nice clean shot, literally and figuratively. I for one appreciate it when the photographer takes the time to remove dust before pics are posted.
Very nice!
