Sometimes just showing up early is rewarding. Like before sunrise, which was nice in itself but clouds on a horizon are always hard to beat. If there’s color you have a pretty good chance of just another pretty photo. But we have lots of those, so, adding the knowledge of shutterspeed and movement of one of the elements of image the result is a little different, giving the sense of the moment, and movement. And as always a little rhythm always adds to a shot. The pier as well as the waves, you can almost hear them.
