This is one of my first images taken with a digital camera.
On my way to a workshop in St Johns Canada I had a stop over in NY. and bought a Nikon D100.
That was exactly 20 years ago.
During the first morning trying out the camera I got this shot

Wow, an oldie, but a goodie. The sense of motion is intense. The whites seem to have a cyan cast though and I’d lose the streaks at the top, leaving the center of attention for the birds. Raising the whites might help as well - just there in the middle where all the action it.

Avi, the sense of motion and the feeling of great space are excellent. I too suggest toning down (or cropping out) the breaking waves at the top. A fine shot for the first time with a new camera.

Thank you Kristen and Mark on your comments. Looking at the photo I agree with you.
I will take the original and work on it .
