steve_parrott 0 Posted September 1, 2017 Lovely, serene scene. I think the black and white is very effective. Only criticism I would have is that it is cropped a bit too tight. The mast is cut off at the top and the boat is at the very left edge of the frame. I always imagine how a photo would look framed, and a frame would cut into the boat on the left side. I think the shot would be better if taken from a slightly farther distance. Link to comment
Ken Ratcliffe 103,239 Posted September 1, 2017 Steve. Many thanks for your comprehensive and helpful comments. Yes I did frame this too tight at the time I was concentrating on the two people in the boat and the scene behind the boat attempting to catch the moment. Best regards Ken. Link to comment
