 Very much a camera novice here (I actually had to take my tripod out of its wrapping for this), but upon the pushing of a friend I'm going to try and develop my photography skills!

My drive to work in the wee hours of the morning, my eyes open for leading lines. Slightly blurring, I blame the camera... :)

This is the last image I'm commenting on. I keep skipping it because I not sure what I don't like about it. It's an OK image but I find it uninspiring. I'm not sure if it's the reflections of the lights on the water or how the pier is so small in comparison to the overall photo but something about it makes it boring to me. I keep thinking what I would change, the lighting is OK, you can't really crop much. I'm thinking perhaps changing the POV to be looking more along the pier out towards the ocean. That would make the pier a little larger looking and would not make such a long, skinny photo. Sorry I can't articulate my feelings any more than that.

This would have been really great if you'd been able to introduce some more perspective from the pier. Right now I feel the lines are not leading, but flat across the image.
