Morro Bay late into the evening. I arrived there very late and thought I couldn't get a shot of it at all.
I had to take a very very slow exposure of it (25 sec).

Could you please let me know if there is anything I can improve on this shot. Thanks a lot.

未遵循黄金分割律。哈哈。只有大师才敢这么拍。-老飘飘
仙人和大眼会说近景选择还欠考究。
对于我来说这片子已经不错啦。

Ha ha. Thanks Greg. You are right.
I arrived there so late and was kind of scared being in such an isolated area by myself. I had no light and no one was around me. It was becoming dark very fast and I could hang around there for 5 minutes before loosing my direction in the darkness (my family stayed in the car and didn't want to go down to this isolated dark area).

It was hard to find anything interesting in the foreground to shoot. I could find no rocks, no person near the water body (may be somewhere nearby but I couldn't afford to wander around) At least, I found some of seaweeds in the foreground. Had ZhaoHu be with me, he might be able to summon a few models there for me, haha. I couldn't find an easy way to come up with an "asynmetrically balanced" photo layout at that time either.

Perhaps, for educational and illustration purpose, could someone help cut/paste and recompose this photo so I could learn from this. Thanks a lot in advance.

2种分割法嘛，对称和不对称，对称的就是居中，不对称就是黄金分割。这显然是在寻找对称。另外画面中的亮点，那个灯火和小岛还是在黄金分割点上呀。

听起来，这位是正牌的老飘飘。听他的错不了。现在看来是符合黄金分割了。听老飘飘这么一说，感觉这幅画好看起来了。没有MT，没有考虑把自己放进去？是水太凉吧。
要说孤单。我昨天第一次去JT拍星星。自己在乱石堆里折腾了大半夜。还听到一群Coyote厮打时发出的凄惨嗥叫声。那些大师走过来的路不是平坦的大路哇。不知道大眼今天在那个山坡上数星星呢。
