Thanks Mary Anne! I worked on getting color into the sky, but had a really hard time not making it look super over-saturated. It was a really gray night so the color you see is already boosted quite a bit. Thanks for the hint on the horizon. I fixed it from a crazy angle (the camera was sitting on another rock - it's a long story why the tripod wasn't there...). I will fix it a bit more.

Christina, this is my favorite of your three. I love what the long exposure has done to the water...lovely. However, I might try to add more color to the sky for a more dramatic effect. Also the horizon tilts up toward the right. I do the same thing with the majority of my landscapes...you must be right-handed. I'm envious of your opportunity to get some photos like this.
