missing you

An empty dock keeps a lonely vigil just inside the entrance to Squalicum Harbor. In the background... Lummi Island, Portage Island, Orcas Island, Gooseberry Point, and the moonlit waters of Bellingham Bay.

 

I hesitate posting this as it is not as sharp as I would like. I am finding that achieving sharpness is the most difficult aspect of night photography and am wondering if any of my contacts have any helpful hints. In the end, I decided that this image was more about the mood than the sharpness.

 

Part of the problem may have been that I was shooting from a floating dock, and no matter how calm it appears, there is some movement over a long exposure.
