 Used my circular polarizer (I think I'm addicted, especially when presented with skies like this). I love big white puffy cotton candy clouds. Not sure how this will do, as I'm not sure it's a dramatic choice of perspective but whatever... I like it.

Now onto the processing:
Cropped a little off all the way around. Did a levels, curve and saturation adjustment. Converted to greyscale and then used a quadtone to get the coloring I wanted. A little USM, added the border and resized and there ya have it. :-)

The perspective on this is great IMO. Only thing I see and it is just personal preference is I would like to see the whole dock and all the boats. Maybe a few steps back. Either way great shot.

Nice contrast shot! I would like to see more of those boats, but that's just me. Good luck!

I like the balance of the picture. The sky is quite lovely, too.

Nice perspective. I would like to see this one in color too.

A level horizon would have helped this. Nice contrast. Dramatic.

I love B&W but I think this might have been a good candidate for color.
