Today I was back at Penarth Pier to capture a few much longer exposures of the area. Sadly, the tide was not as high as I has anticipated, but I still took the opportunity to take photos. The weather was also not what I had hoped for, but still, it was a great few hours out.
I used my Nikon ZF and my Tamron 16-30mm lens. All images are exposed at between 20-30 seconds (the EXIF is missing as they are .webp files), including the images on the pier, where I used the exposures to remove the people in real time.
Raw images were edited in Luminar Neo.

Hey Mark, beautiful series, especially the low-angle shots on the wooden deck. Those really stand out. They almost invite a bit more experimentation, maybe even something slightly HDR-ish if you dare. Either way, very nicely done.

Thank you Marc, even that long angle deck shots were 25 seconds. It was full of people, but the longer exposure removed them which is what I was experimenting with. And that lens is so sharp, with so much detail it’s unbelievable.

Clever way to ‘retouch’ people. Fine set, although I’ll probably never will get used to those long exposure skies.

Thank you. Yes, it’s very “arty” but something a bit different. And handy when you need to not have people in your photos!
