    Nice enough... but it seems really grainy. What iso was this taken at? Maybe try a lower iso...

    Personally I would have got a little lower to the ground to get more of it in the scene seems to lack some sort of foreground interest.

    And it is a pity you missed the head of Howth, I would have cut off some of the left side to get more on the right so as to show how big the bay is.

    I know the horizon is in the top third (which is good) but maybe it should be a little higher into it. There is something that I cant put my finger on about the placement of the power station.

    One last thing, what did you take the exposure reading off? Did you just take it as you were taking the picture or did you read off the sky and recompose? I am just curious not critiquing it. I still have an awful lot to learn myself.

    To be honest with you, I'm not 100%. I think I just took it as I was taking the picture. Exposure reading is something i still need to learn...

    I'd say it might look better if you were closer to the towers, it's hard to appreciate the size from this distance.
