Mouth of Ketchikan Creek, emptying into saltwater harbor. White spots in water in center of channel are Pink salmon breaching the surface, or their dorsal fins. Man on bridge in bright green sweatshirt was fishing and releasing -- continuously catching salmon. I think he was looking for a better variety of salmon running with the Pink spawning.

Actually I really like the atmosphere of these shots, and No. 2 and 4 are really good.
Somehow though you seem to blow out the highlights be quite a margin, especially in no. 1, and I am not sure if No. 3, the really blurry one, is maybe just too artistic for my taste ? ( I mean you know that it is really blurry, don't you ? )
thanks, I appreciate the feedback I have a tendency to blow out highlights but can't take credit for #1, as my partner had the RX1Rii at the time. #3 is definitely blurry, didn't realize how bad the foreground was until posting on here. Either the focal distance was too far or I wasn't able to handle 1/80s at that moment.
