kslonaker 0 Posted June 15, 2006 Very pleasing composition. The soft, muted colors work well. The horizon is fairly centered, but it doesn't bother me at all; I can't imagine a better way to crop this. Very nice! Link to comment
nathan_ross 0 Posted June 15, 2006 The light, colours, composition, exposure balance.... They all add up to make a great shot. Link to comment

jayme 0 Posted June 16, 2006 It is always refreshing when the photographer gives so much technical information about what was used to capture such a pleasing image. I'm not a real fan of sunsets/sunrises but this one caught my eye. I believe it is the wonderful hue of the blue monotones with the one small patch of orange off in the distance on the horizon that really captured my attention. The time span (15 seconds) creates a rich, smoothness, which is very pleasing. As Kim mentioned, the central placement of the horizon may be a little unconventional, but it works beautifully. I think it works because of the well placed greenery in the bottom third & the lighter sky in the upper third, leaving an unconventional, but eye pleasing middle third. I find myself wondering if placing a subject at the end of this pier might have made it even more dramatic? But then I enjoy people :) Simply, an amazingly well captured image. It proves that a digital camera in the right hands can capture wonderful things without PS. Really nice job! Link to comment

PeterKrenek 26 Posted June 16, 2006 Glenn, another fine shot, congratulations. You list many filters. Which one have you actually used to tame the sky luminosity ? Peter Link to comment
AJHingel 127 Posted June 16, 2006 Glen; without any doubt, a great shot. When this is said I think what makes the picture is the exceptional composition. The colour management is in my eyes less succesful. Something artificially smooth takes you away from being there and makes it all very artificial. I know that such colour treatment is appreciate by many on photonet, but for me it is not doing justice to this very beautiful scene. Link to comment
glenn traver 0 Posted June 16, 2006 Thank you Peter and Anders, I used all filters listed, no PS color changes or enhancements, just minor cloning of dust spec's and artifacts ~ GT Link to comment

AJHingel 127 Posted June 22, 2006 Thanks Glenn for your message on your "colour management". I understand that you use filters and not PS enhancement of colours. For me it comes to the same. All what counts, in my eyes is the result, the final picture. Link to comment
