If only there was an app that could make titles for us based on the appearance of a photo, that would make life a lot easier for me. Until then, "twilight" is as far as my imagination goes! Taken during a very enjoyable night outside at the coast.

24 mm, f/11, iso 200, 5.5 min, ND10 filter, ND3 grad.

C&C welcome! Large version included.

Real nice sky, water and rocks. The comp feels a bit tight on the sides to my eye. 

Titles are tough. Sometimes they pop into my head and other times it is a major struggle to come with anything.

I like the mood of this picture, the water that looks like a fog  and the sky that the long shutter brings a veil over the water. Beautiful.

It's a good idea your software to suggest titles with the appearance, I would need it too. I'll work on that!

How about Steel Waters? Okay, a little corny, but I do like how the water looks a little like polished metal.

I'm digging your long exposure work, Roel.  I can see why Harley thinks it might be a little tight.  The pool in the foreground could use some space to the right, but tha's a small nit in an otherwise beautiful image.

Roel, you've got a fine combination of contrasts here.  Love the misty and sharp of the rocks and water plus the cool blues with a lovely touch of twilight pink.  As to title, I'd go with something about the mood, like Say Ahhh because it's exactly what I would be feeling while sitting there watching this happen. (..didn't somebody already use that title as a weekly challenge theme...sad )

Roel:

So far I haven't tried any of these super long exposures, but the effect can be captivavting. A good thing to do on a retreating tide?  Your many shoreside images at twilight are an inspiration!

Regards:   Tom

Thoroughly enjoy your use of a long shutter speed and how the milky water is diffused throughout the fascinating rock.  The resulting contrast between the solid, textured rock and the diffuse water is what is so intriguing.  Love the reflections on the rock and the subtle colors as well.  An outstanding image.

Wow, 5.5 minutes, good thing there were no sleeper waves! Very dream-like image that I find very relaxing. Minor nit about a small bit of haloing on the far left horizon but otherwise everything looks great.

Very nice image.  The textures and contrast are very appealing.
