Floating in the clouds

The best in the row Madeleine!

Best regards!

Madeleine, very good shot. It looks almost like the boats are floating in the sky. The horizon seems to be mixed up with the water and the misty weather. Regards, Burak

Great capture

Regards, Peter

Wonderful mood!

A really dramatic photo.  It does almost look like the boats are floating in the clouds.  Compositionally, I like that there are three boats instead of just one or two, and that there's an imaginary line that connects them and leads the eye from the one in the foreground to the one off to the right.  The dynamic tension created by the subjects (the boats) and the brightness in the clouds in the upper half ensures that my eye explores the entire image and thereby sees some of the more subtle elements (e.g. the sliver of green trees, the differing blue hues of the hills in the background, the ripples in the water).  Nicely done.

Madeleine,

Nice image. It does appear to float in the clouds.  Two ideas, might you soften the front boat more by cutting down on the black to soften it and relate it more to the other two boats?  And how about blurring the front water just a bit to increase the floating in the clouds motif.  You capture the fog and clouds well.  Could this be a city like San Francisco behind the fog?  How do you like this in B&W?

Fantastic shot, Madeleine ! Congratulations for this mystical atmosphere!
