This was taken in Diu with my camera Bag as support! (Had not carried my tripod)
The scene was too much to let go of.
Wish there were a few more stars in the sky.

Canon 450D, 18-55mm
SS 120"
f/8
ISO 200

Nice image. I like the composition. I feel that the image would be better without those lights of the buzzing city (I'm not sure of it) at the horizon

Hi Bhargava,
Thanks for the critique.
The lights in the horizon would be trawlers/ships.

May be less space at the bottom - that would have eliminated the bright waves. Also, that would make the exposure better due to less difference between the dark and bright portion of the image. More star trails will enhance the composition. Did you use a timer?

Cheers,

Hi Sabyasachi,
I agree, I should have cut a bit at the bottom for a lower tonal range in the image. However I didn't have a sturdy support to facilitate longer exposures (lowepro bag used as support). So I included the waves as an interest point in the image.
NOTE to Self: Always carry a Tripod!!!
