Description Your criticism would be highly appreciated!
It's funny how next to such beauty, there can be such hideousness... taken in Hunstanton during a storm. Missed the bus home so walked back 15 miles along the coast at night time, quite a scary experience.

Edit
-New Crop
-Flipped Horizontally

Interesting. I like the crop. Probably 16:9?
And the horizon is tilted.

I have no idea, I don't follow formats, except for square. I love that tilted horizon.

Some minor criticisms to an awesome picture: the horizon isn't straight (can be easily corrected) and personally I'd prefer it if the little person in the distance was touching the horizon (but at that distance it's impossible to correct, I guess). Perhaps it's just me, I'm always sensitive to important motives' outlines touching important lines like the edge or the frame or the horizon, it may suggest a connection that isn't there.

After all, it's still a picture that's worth a 15 mile walk in the dark...

Thanks a lot Eric, I'm fairly sure the slanted horizon adds dynamism to the composition, so that stays, and as for the persons head, I understand what you mean, and what you say about lines is very very true, that'll change how I photograph, but I was already standing like a ballet dancer, this was as high as I could get the camera. Maybe next year.
