Default Sunrise at OBX

Ok, I think I feel brave enough today to post my first photos to this forum.
I would gladly welcome suggestions/comments!
Three are straight out of the camera, the fishing pole pic has obviously been processed
These were taken on our vacation to the Outer Banks this summer.
Thanks for looking!

Excellent shots except for the horizons as you noted.

They look good. I fixed the horizons by wedging a Targus 58mm UV filter under one corner of my monitor.

LOL! Great fix Jim!

Footskelly: This is the pier in Avon, which as far as I could determine, was the only pier in Avon.

Thanks for the compliment Palmettory!

I went back in my files because I swore I had fixed the horizon on the fishing pole pictured I had already heavily edited and I was right! So I swapped the old one out with the newer one. The rest Im pretty sure I fixed also but wanted to post some straight from the camera.

Nice series, Recalibration! Unless I'm shooting a pano, I don't worry about being perfectly level, I fix it in PP later.

A nice set of seascapes, mate and as Ken_L says, horizons can be levelled by PP.
