Really like the scene you chose to capture... and at night too.
I have made a few adjustments ... -0.34EV warmed up the WB added a tiny bit of clarity, raised the shadows and dropped the highlights a little. The changes are quite subtle but see if you like them? It is your image, and what you like is what counts! I would also say to you to be aware of what is in your frame when you are composing the shot.... the tree in the top right is a distraction and adds nothing to the image... to remove it and leave the boat rigging would take quite a bit of work and the result may not be perfect. Perhaps you could have moved to frame the yacht as a focal point which would have put the foliage into context... or moved to frame without the yacht at all? It's something most of us think about (and often forget!!) when framing ... if you get it right it really reduces the PP to save it. BTW... I know the docks... I used to come there in my boat when I was part of the team that built the 360 Cinema and the underground car park nearby opposite the round Lloyds building... I lived in Yates's when not working Anyway, see what you think. Kind regards Rolf In photography, the smallest thing can be a great subject. The little human detail can become a leitmotiv. —Henri Cartier-Bresson

Will go again and concentrate more on the composition. Wendy

LOL! That's one the reasons I spent so much time in Yates's... it is a maritime climate for sure!

Bit different, liked the detail/quality, on the brick wall, straightened the uprights. Good series. Ed.

Wendy, you could bring some detail out of the shadows, but don't overdo it. Similarly, sharpen but don't over-sharpen. Use gentle and subtle adjustments, repeating if needed.
Cheers. Philip

I use Photoshop CS4E, and let Camera Raw do a lot of the adjusting automatically, fine tune from there. I do have a lot of experience in wet/conventional photography, mainly B & W, which helps. Regards. Ed.
