Thanks Jackie 🙂 artie

Thanks David. It was the yellow strip that I was initially worried about but the light blue strip was actually lighter and more susceptible to over-exposure. My main reason for staying with 8 seconds rather than going to a faster exposure was to blur the water; there was a bit of a breeze. The other reason–you hinted at it in the second part of your answer–was to lessen or eliminate the effect of those on the deck who might have taken a step or two during the exposure.

So all in all you did quite well. artie
