Slight rotation, crop, channel mixer, curves USM, noise reduction, scale, sharpen. (The Gimp)

Taken at 5:45 pm, in fabulous light. This is a shot often attempted, usually with the Panny, and which I am thinking I might do better with a DSLR, although I am not quite sure what I want. Out of this scene.

All interesting comments - great stuff to think about and try. And yes, closest waves are clearer, but I was spot focusing, I hoped, on the plane - maybe the angle of view. Will definitely give this other shots.

The focus point seems to be on the closest waves to me. If you try this shot again with the P&S, try putting it in "landscape" mode, so that it will be shooting for distance only. I like the scene. I didn't know that these cameras worked that early in the day. : )

I agree with the previous comments... also perhaps a little more space on the right hand side. also maybe enhance in the noise to add a grainy feel.

I would have preferred less sky and sea just enough to show where the plane was coming from and going to, but overall a good capture !

My eye is drawn immediately to the plane, and then to the trailing spray. I like the scene, but I am distracted by the noisy sky. Having the horizon on the 1/3 line instead of 1/4 might balance the composition a little better.

It's a nice capture. I love the hills and how the small airplane really stands out.

Nice shot, I think I would have preferred less sea in the foreground, but that's just me!
