End of Season

Light, colour and tone are all good here & the title says it all. If I'm being picky, I'd crop a little from the right & possibly clone out the blue drum on the left. Otherwise rather nice!

A very nice image Bill.  I love the birds filling up the sky and the reflection. Judging from some of the highlights, you may have over-exposed just a tad but it really does not hurt the image. I had a similar image taken in St.kitts and it did not get the positive reaction I was looking for. I think 'end of summer' is a sad thing for most people but for me I see it as the beginning of Fall here in North america. All the best,

Thanks for your comments Simon and Tony.

Simon, very useful observations, the blue drum may well be better removed, thanks.

Tony, you're right about the highlights, I'm adjusting my processing workflow to attempt a look I want achieve, but as in the old film days you have to adjust shooting technique and settings to match processing and I haven't quite found the formula yet. Thanks for this and all your helpful comments.

Photo talk by itself, well match the title. Summer is over, soon fall of this year will be in our memory...
