richard_milner2 0 Posted September 7, 2004 This is a conventional scene which would be rather dull if not for the inclusion of the boat with its interesting flags. So I expect that's exactly why you included it. The sky has good texture. The light, high level cloud relieves and complements the rather sombre and featureless foreground. The boat is mysterious. Why does it carry flags? Has it arrived home from a festival? Being pulled up on the shore, perhaps it is stranded and the flags are a distress signal. I amagine this image was taken near dusk. A little more light in the bottom right hand corner of the frame would have allowed some better definition. This could have been achieved with the use of an ND grad filter to reduce the exposre of the sky. However, the actual print may well work better than seeing the image on screen against a white background. I like it. Link to comment
sef1664877429 0 Posted September 7, 2004 Its a nice comp, but lacks punch. Some PS work could really bring this to life. There also appears to be a crack top-left. Here's an edited version, hope you don't mind. Its not perfect, just a suggestion. It would also look good as B&W channel mix red. Link to comment
