Default New tripod shots

So just got a new tripod and I decided to go try out a few shots at my local beach. If any of you have looked through my Flickr account you will notice many shots from this location. I am very lucky to have the ocean right in my backyard. Anyway, hope you enjoy my attempts at some shots with longer exposure. Thanks

WELCOME to DPS
I like the first one especially, but all of them are good. Well done, keep them coming.

Those are very good. You are lucky to have such nice scenery.
I like the color in the first one and the perspective of the second one.

I'm so jealous -- wish I had an ocean in my backyard! All are nicely done -- and I really love the subtle colors of the last.

I am really lucky, but it also makes me not want to go exploring to find new places to shot because it is so close. I should not complain though, I love the beach. Thanks for the comments everyone!

Nice shots, I especially like the soft colours of the last one.

Nice shots, I am near the beach too.

Love the middle shot!

I still need to get a tri-pod.
