colour of australia Smith's LAke (300k from Sydney)

Beautiful.

Just went through this album. All the pics are wonderfully taken. Thanks for being an inspiration.

u've frozen a beautiful mood....congrats

I just know I would like to be there.

Tony, another excellent shot. However, and I am only partially kidding here, why does the front silhouette look like a monkey to me? Does this guy go fishing with his monkey? Is it just me or does anyone else see this?

 

All kidding aside, an excellent photo.

great picture, i wish i had a helper monkey to carry around my cameras

This picture remind me of my father while I was young. Thank you.

my favorite in this folder

Beautiful photograph. The golden sky reflected into the strong blue of the lake is very nice. The of the people in the boat also add some interesting elements.

This picture looks as if it had 2 Horizons. One being slightly under the real Horizon, where blue fades into orange/yellow and the other being the real Horizon(at least I think it is:). If you'd cut off the upper half of the picture, it would look alright as well, because of the fake Horizon.

The only thing I don't like about this picture is that it is angled by about .6 degrees. It doesn't sound much, but it is apparent when you look at the picture.

not a comment about this photo, but i would like to recommend all take a look into the "flowers" folder of Bill Storage's work (the guy who did the sanfransisco night-boat scene POW.) It may just bowl you over:)

one of the best sunset/sunrise pictures ever seen in photo.net

Like all of your photos, just beautiful Tony.

 

With regards to the monkey, I'm not even sure that is a person (or monkey, or any other living creature). Admittedly, it sure looks as if it might be, but I think it is a bit of an illusion created by the heavy shadows. Any comment Tony?

There are a lot of people, on this planet earth, who do love postcard-image photography.(Adelaide S.A.)

You've done it again. Another beautiful shot. I look at your portfolio and I wonder why the rest of us even try.

Awesome

To be used to calm down when you're stressed, instead of a medecine... :-)

Dreamlike picture with a fantastic silhouette figure as subject and a atmospheric background.

Where do people find the guts to rate this image 6 / 6 and to say this is the best image in this folder ?!?!? Photo.Net is the only place on Earth where people dare to show so much ignorance ! It is in my opinion too the best shot in this folder, but what joke is this 6 / 6 ! Even Cartier-Bresson wouldn't have rated this so low !

Tony, seriously.. it's a dream captured in camera... bravo!!

Perfect

This is sensational. The point of focus in the foreground, against a truly beautiful scenery. Add a few ounces of photographic talent (is that understated enough) and this one is really inspiring.

For me, the best picture in an excellent folder.

What more can one say?

It's the first print you see when you walk into my house - or the last when you're leaving. It's grown on me over the past few years.

 

Every cloud has a silver lining... the exposure meter wasn't working properly on the camera and the shot was over-exposed by a stop and a half or so. This washes out the highlights (which, looking at it, isn't such a bad thing after all) and leaves tantalising detail around the peripheries of the man and his son.

 

I never would have thought of doing this deliberately, especially with transparency film. It just goes to show: you can always learn something new.

 

Much of this area has now "gone ahead". This means: condos, supermarkets, "Eco Cabins", overpriced resorts and spiraling real estate prices. You can still find a ten kilometre beach with no footprints upon it (the New South Wales coast is replete with them), but you have to drive, and then walk a little further to do so.

 

Ah... progress.
