The dream of an Old Jetty is to retire into a pool of silky water...

It can be found in my Flickr below too. Thanks.

Hmm, the colour looks rich on my CRT, but now with my lappy, its looks faded.

Any comment so that I can re-do a little. Thanks!

PC laptops tends to have crappy LCDs. I'm looking at this on a MacBook, looks good to me. You should ask those who calibrate their screens.

Looks great to me too. I'm using a good PC laptop, colours are beautiful.

Thanks guys for the replies. Really appreciate them. Good to hear that the colour looks fine on your display.

Sigh, really hope I can get my display calibrated...

Oh~! it looks nice.. how do you take this kind of photo? look smooky smooky, it's not edited in PP right?

I actually like the pic, looks dreamy.

Love the pic too, and the colours are perfect. Would prefer a little more space on the top, but I'm guessing that'd be interrupted by the sky?

Think it'll be great if you could loosen up the composition by giving more space on top and the sides

Hi,

Thanks for coming by. The smoky smoky feel is created by long exposure, not from PP.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the frank opinions, thats what I love to hear. I do agree that that more space on the top will be better...but AlteredVision's guess is right, if I pan up, I will get the horizon...and I cannot get a higher ground to shoot, so no choice loh.
