Increased the structure of the water, darkened the highlights to reduce over exposure of the boats. The shot was a bit tricky, I wanted to go higher up but it's in the outer controlled airspace of an airport which restricts altitude to 50m AGL

Very nice!

Also appreciate the comments on how you edited. Always find that interesting.

Someone asked the other day 'why so photoshopped', when I basically did nothing to the image'. The commenter was downvoted heavily and I thought that's not good. I liked the discussion tbh. So I thought more transparency would be good on what I do with the images. I only do this for fun, so don't have anything to hide

This looks super calming and I could imagine a badass puzzle from this!

Thank you for sharing

Does anyone else think that boats should park the other way in a space like this? Look how much better they would fit if they backed into their spots.

Depends on a large part how deep the water is right at the edge. The bows of the boats are largely on top of the surface. The stern of the boats sit lower in the water, and when lowered the outboard motors will sit a foot or more under the surface. It’s very possible that at low tide the prop could hit bottom when backing in…

Lol yeah the geometry of the noses would pack tighter. However, you could get a situation where you can't get out because the noses are all angles in towards each other
