Here is my second attempt at the Fishing Pier, still not what I had envisioned but I will get lucky one day with the colors
. Three image HDR capture processed in Photomatix Pro15% savings by using the code Birdsasart and Nik Color Efex use code BAA for 15% savings.
I converted this to B&W in Photoshop and then added a few of the Nik Color Efex filters including Glamour Glow and Low Key.
Here I went in tight for a different look. I converted this in Photoshop and added a slight tint. I have an idea for a different shot but will have to wait till I go out and brave the cold again

Terrific images Denise. The different perspectives really give a good feel for the subject. Love the sky and color in the first image.
Len, Thank you so much. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts

Great picture, My favorite is the first one ,Fantastic processing.
Michael, Thank you for your kind words, I knew you would like the colored one

You sure achieved a wonderful effect in the second one. The tinting is great because of the sand, but it would also look good in other images converted to black & white.
I haven’t, yet, figured if you put some blue back into the sky or if it’s my mind doing it.
Dennis, the funny thing is I spent more time on the second one than I did the others. The color tinting needed to be just right.

Denise,
I love the top image. I think the monochromatic sky with the touch of red in the distance works perfectly with the browns of the pier. Love it as a color image much more than B&W.
Thanks Vinnie, I liked your Manhattan zoom blur blog post today!

Thank you Edith, I appreciate it

This is very nice. Makes me wonder why I have yet to go get more shots of places like this.
Thank you kindly
denise
Also a very nice picture! I liked the one you had the other day better but this is also a very, very nice picture. The lighting and the clouds make it. The perspective is also very nice. I don’t know how you could make it any better. I think it’s a matter of being there sat the right time. You know how to capture the picture perfectly.
Peter, Thank you for sharing your thought. I appreciate it

I love the first one – the colours are mellow and gentle. The lines in the third are dramatic, and in this one I am sure monochrome simplifies the image, and that works really well.
Thanks so much Andy!

Denise, this pier looks like it is very photogenic and you seem to have nailed down the best angles to photographic from. Love ‘em all
Thank you Andrew, it was fun. I have one more post!
denise
Like the first one best, especially that sky! a
Artie, thank you

Very nice compositions Denise. I prefer the color shot. Your monochrome version(s) are still nice (I like the drama) and set a totally different mood. The change of aspect ratio makes a big difference.
Mark, welcome to my blog. I appreciate the kind words.
