Hi Ed,

I think that Vik is one of the most magical places on the southern coast of Iceland.  And the sea stacks are incredible.  But... I think that in presenting this shot in a panoramic format, and with virtually no detail in the water, you have made the stacks look much smaller than they are.  Personally, I would have either cropped out the cliff on the right hand side, or included something else in the frame (e.g. a person or some foreground grass) to enable the viewer to gain some perspective.  I hope this helps.

Regards

Mark

Hi Ed,

Further to my previous comment, I have just spotted this photo of the sea stacks at Vik by Steen Nielsen. http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=11663891

Even though the stacks are further away in Steen's photo, by including more foreground detail I think he has increased the viewers ability to get a sense of scale of the stacks.

Again, I really hope this helps. (And that it clarifies my previous comment).

Best Regards

Mark
