[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
I posted Redondo Lantern a year ago. This is another angle to see the same scene. The setting sun was hanging on the top of the decorative sail/shell models atop of the Redondo Beach Pier. It is a popular place to visit year around.

This photo has very futiristic feeling to it. All the lines are fantastic with a great strong imapct.
The sun is positioned beautifully. The bird is a great feature too.

Hi Wes, I like the view of this place with the colors casted by the sun.
I find that from the angle you are taking this photo, the horizon is slightly tilted to the left. Some chromatic aberration is noticable on the palm trees and lamppost.

Great positioning of the sun, just over the shell. The contrast in this is nice too, between the warm sky and pastel water and the dark, almost silhoetted pier. Great work!

Hi Wes
seems like I hav'nt been to your gallery for ages ... oh well I have been pretty much away from the TE lately.
well about this photo, i like it even better than your last photo from this place as it is rich in colours being reflected from the water ... and that is what I like the most about this photo ...
thanks a lot for sharing this marvelous view with rest of us who are not that fortunate to travel to places as splendid as you have been to
regards ... sarju

Olá Wes
Foto de cores lindíssimas, composição muito bonita e cheia de
detalhes, parabéns pelo trabalho, muito bom.
Grande abraço,
Vera.

Hi Wes, Well arranged POV for the sun into that nest-like space. Reflection from the water is effective. Good to see and hear about this place on TE.TFS. Murray.

Hi wes,
Yes, it as one of your favorites, I like this one even better for the framing of the sculpture above the pier. Like Chrisina, I think the gull adds a lot as well. Light and color are wonderful in both photos.

Hola Wes.
I liked your Redondo Lantern a year ago and i like this one very much, you captured it from a very good angle, good POV. Beautiful sunset, the reflection, colors and compo are excellent.
Good shot, TFS.

I like both shots Wes. Each one shows care, thought and patience to place the sun in the frame for maximum effect. The people silhouettes also add a lot to the composition and the glow and reflected light in the sea is really lovely.

Hi Wes,
The scene is captivating, as one's eye is drawn instantly and compellingly to the sun, perfectly in the centre of the sail motif. The silhouetted figures add a surreal touch, and there is superb graphism here. Finally, the orange sky contrasts so well with the blue water. This is very fine work, Wes. I love it.

nice photo wes,
not an easy photo you made with the backlight, but I like the idea and the good lines in the shot, well seen and good job.
gr. jaap

On this image there are so many thinks they make it wonderful.
The composition with the sun on the top of this decoration, the people on this bridge, the colors, the flying bird, the lines, all together make this image wonderful.

A very peaceful evening setting. You've framed the shot well and positioned the latern well. I like the silhouetted pier against this sunset.
Best wishes
Mark

Hi Wes - your POV was very well chosen & the moment was perfect for getting the sun to sit right on top of the shell. The strong sunlight gives us an excellent silhouette effect on the pier & the people.

Wes I have to say I like your photo posted a year ago a little more. This one looks like a little too much photoshop something. On the other hand it has created a nice effect on this scene. Good work Wes on both. Its nice to be back on TE!

Hej Wes,
Beautiful shot with a great atmosphere! The silhouette of the pier stands out wonderfully against the blue sea and the orange sky. The place of the sun is also fantastic! Very well done, great capture!

Hi Wes,
Very interesting sunset! One of the most interesting ones I've seen, thx to your perspective & compo. The silhouettes are pretty nice and colours as well. Only thing need improvement is probably the sharpness. Great shot!
Cheers,

Hi Wes
Lovely sky and sunset. I like the sultry and colourful atmosphere. The scene has a good feeling about it. The sun's reflection in the water is a nice aspect too, which delivers extra warmth and colour. Good summer shot.

A great moment, I suppose, in a place where shapes seem to be here to be captured and composed in the sunset, as you did well. God framing. TFS.

A beautiful sunset where you manage to handle the light conditions very well. i like all those black silhouettes against the ardent sky. Nice colours and nice sun light reflections on the water. Well done!

Hi Wes
A fine moody image - I would say theres something japanish over this image - properly the sun and the shell model - thanks for sharing - may be a little more sharpness would have been nice - but never mind :-)

Hi Wes
Interest shot with interesting angle.
But I found the image is a little blur.
from the exposure value, it is consider okayed, if you were to retain the sunset with its reflection onto the sea. Probably a shaky hand resulted the blurness, huh!
Everything is composed perfectly, Wes, except for the blurness.
Cheers and good day, Wes.

Hi Wes
NIce composition with a nice geometry. The sun is perfectly situated.
The light and colors are great.
Well done
Bertrand

Hi Wes,
Interesting to see the similarity and the difference between this picture and the picture of a year ago. I think this one is more artistic and one could say a more “impressionistic” approach of the subject.
Good to show us these developments.

Hi wes. This is a beautiful seaside view. The strong composition makes this shot good. A bit sharpness need to be improved, but the photo itself is a great one. Hey, I got my comp's HDD crashed, so I recommend you to store the datas in another devicce frequently...just in case. hehe.

Hello Wes...One of my favorites last year and a new addition to my favorites this year. I love time and season comparisons. Great framing...a beauty. Thanks for posting...Mae
