gsaphoto 2 Posted October 21, 2010 Excellent work! Nothing more to add, every think already written... Thank you for your comments on one of my latest work. With all my best, Grigoriy Link to comment
ldavidson 4 Posted October 21, 2010 I am very impressed with your knowledge about Canadian canoes. Your are right, they were made of Birch bark and cedar strips. They were designed by the Ojibwa Indians and used in the fur trade. They had to be light so that they could portage when necessary. They were light but very sturdy and strong. They were 36 ft. long and fit 8 to 10 men and could carry 3 tons of goods. Link to comment
alfbailey 3 Posted October 21, 2010 GRIGORIY Many thanks for your visit and very kind words, much appreciatedKind RegardsAlfLINDAThank you for that information Linda, they are an amazing feat of engineering, incredibly strong and of course so much better looking than the lumps of yellow and white plastic that is the material of thier modern counterparts. So much for progress <sigh>Best RegardsAlf Link to comment

vadima 0 Posted October 23, 2010 Hi Alf, I like how you composed it and played with colors. The transition fro orange to blue is not very trivial and for this reason is striking and memorable. Link to comment

alfbailey 3 Posted January 3, 2011 RAYMOND B Many thanks for your visit and kind words, much appreciated. I used a ND Grad filter to allow a more even spread of light to the lower half of the image.Best RegardsAlfRAYMOND E Sincere thanks for stopping by, the sun had dissapeared below the horizon and there was very little light left, but I think it worked in my favour on this one.Best RegardsAlf Link to comment
alfbailey 3 Posted January 12, 2011 Nothing quite so complicated for this one, it was just a single long exposure, coupled with a ND Grad filter. Many thanks for stopping by Alec.Cheers!Alf Link to comment
