Hello Beverley, the red stone in the foreground contrasts beautifully with the cold tones of the sea and sky, as well as framing the view so well.
The two paddle boarders are a good focal point.
Everything in perfect sharpness.
Kind regards
Jean.

P.S. The workshop picture gives a totally different sense of the
place, thanks.

Hello Bev,
I always think it's a strange idea to sail standing on a board. You expect them to fall over any time. 7
These two sailors are an excellent human factor in this beautiful landscape in which you have made good use of the foreground and background.
Excellent work
Have a good week, groet Rob

Hello Bev,
A quite poor light here , but with the red tonalities of the rocks and stoned buildings in the Fg , and the grey sky and sea , the composition is beautiful. Of course , the couple of paddle boarders is a fine bonus to the scene.
Regards

Hello Bev,

Two nice additional picture, your man has lovely view about the port.
I understand you that not can use through the silhouette of your man
You chose nice the opening between the walls of the Dunbar Battery, also showing the two men.
You create an excellent perspective and depth picture.
Composition with lovely colours and sharpness
Very well done, TFS.

Kindest regards,
John

Hi Beverley,
great red bricked foregroud and the view leaading to the bouilders in the grass and there beyond the surfers on the sea is beautiful.
Thanks and regards,
Gerrit

Hi Bev
A good scene mixing old and paddle boarders.
Cheers

Hello Beverley,
The battery is indeed an ideal place to overlook the harbour. Your husband was right that he didn't want to leave the spot :)
I do like that picture very much. It's funny that you could have used that photo as a main upload if there were a stranger enjoying the panorama but not with your husband in sight.
On the other side the battery offers good views of the coastline with its dark rocks and with the paddleboarders braving the cold water. I imagine the water there must be very cold :)
Best regards, Paul

Hi Bev, haha...too funny, in the WS photo you wrote "This photograph shows the view"....then I thought OF LENS BUTT. hahaha. that view though (the scene not his butt) is great! :)
in this main post I was surprised to see the two men out there paddling away, we can't see them from the gallery page. You'd never catch me doing that! That water is probably very cold and unforgiving. Nice shot of rustic features, this town looks very photogenic. cheers

Hello Beverley

A marvellous warm cold colour contrast between the rust red rocks and the blue grey tones of the water and sky. Good sharpness and the 2 surf ski riders provide a focal point. Tfs!

Hello Bev,
I like all three photos of the Battery and harbor. In this main photo, the earthy colors in the foreground really stand out. The paddleboarders look tiny in the distance. We also have an old Battery in lower Manhattan. Did you see it during your visit?

Hello Beverley,
The red rocks and the mild low light made a special color cast upon the scene. Good scale with the couple of surfers and the far side fishing boat.
The green moss indicate not much sun getting to this spot.
A bit melancholic ambiance, but still show the typical beauty of Scotland.
Good afternoon,
Ike

Hello Beverley,
Strangely enough, I recognize the place from a long time ago, when "Windosil" was active on the site ! She lives there of course, and according to "Batalay" who follows her on Facebook, she is still fine at the grand age of 95 !!
I love your vertical composition and colours ! Those red stones against the grey sea come out really well ; and the paddle-boarders are an interesting eye-catcher of course !
Great WS showing us the place in more details.
TFS and kindest regards.
Marie-Louise.
