single photos Balance in Blue

You have to take lots of photos. i have nearly 800 shotsm and not many that i would shot too many people. i have a roll at the lab when i get them back.i will post em. looking good so far. might try more zoom or macro lens for more detail. expose more for the shadows on this image to get better object detail but i like it this way for the mystery and vast sense of being alone it gives.might try 210 or 300mm .

check out mine when you can should be 2 weeks and i'll have some nature items up. thank mine is under portraits.

Interesting! Moody and subtle enough I can't quite tell what it is.

I like it but find it just a little too dark. Is it the sky giving it the dark blue or is something else reflecting into the water?

Yes, the blue color is the sky's reflection. It's such a deep blue because this frame is a deliberate underexposure... EliteChrome (actually, most slide films) will saturate all over the place in conditions like that. True to life? No. But I liked the effect. Oh, and additionally, the light right then would have had a blue cast, probably. . . I was out kayaking in the early (EARLY) morning.

Nice image Andrew, Great tone, nice DOF, good sharpness on the main subject.

Keep up the good work

Lovely composition and colors. Looks like an impressionistic painting. I love the hours before and after dawn. Just enough light to make things interesting for those that capture the right exposure.
