A Ship Passing

The ship in this image is one of the giant size cruise ships now in service. Due to my shooting location (a balcony on a high floor), I had a perspective that resulted in the ship's having an odd appearance, namely, looking like its length had been shrunk. Also, due to late afternoon sun , the scene was seriously backlit, resulting in color artifacts mostly in the sky. Applying NIK's noise reduced didn't do much to resolve the problem. That's my confession.

Michael, the effect that you confess too is quite stunning and unique, so very well seen and captured. Best regards Ken.

Fantastic shot, Michael! This interesting POV distorted the perception of space and this giant object. Good illusion, Bravo! Sincerely, Tatiana

Ken and Tatiana, I'm so glad each of you liked this image. I really appreciate the time you took to view and comment on it. - - My best, michael
