    Hi Dallan, welcome to PI and very nice set of photographs for your first post,
    the first and second would be my favourites, love the moon over the sea very nice
    composition in that one, the colour in the first shot is very eyecatching, well done
    and post lots more.

    #2 is my favorite. Agree with Jenny – moon and reflection in the water looks amazing! I think that horizon could be straightened, but maybe it’s just my eyes. Love it anyway

    thanks all.
    the 1st one is just 3 bracketed shots merged in photomatix and then brightened and saturated slightly…it does seem to have to become a bit animated looking though…ill tone it down the next time.
    the 2nd one i thought was straight because the sea came in at a curve and there was land above it.. but on a closer look i think your right gaff, it could do with being straightened ill try it and see , hopefully it wont leave the bench looking wonky !! its a comp shot by the way , it was pitch black when i took the shot , so the moon was coming out a big blown out mess with a 1 minute exposure. i did a quick exposure for the moon and added it using a mask. its amazing the work goes into just getting the picture as the eye sees it! is there an easier way to do it? would a grad nd filter make life easier ?
    thanks for all your comments…im on a steep learning curve
