gallery i <b>Oceanic Jam!</b>

Thanks for your feedback!

The colors and the sense of movement are great! Nice Job! 7/7

The sharpness of this image is amazing. Not easy to take im sure when the boat as rocking about. The way the lower sail reflects the sunset gives this photo a brilliant balance. Great job!!

I am a sailor/photographer and I realy love this shot. 7-7

Lovely shot. I almost feel I'm there! It led me to your portfolio. I was blown away! Amazing work, I am in awe. As to this one, I cannot fault it in any way. Composition is very good, exposure and DOF are great. I think the flipped version is even better...I noticed that you incresed saturation slightly which brought out the water even more. Also, I'm not sure why but for me, it seems to work better with the boat going from right to left. Strange as i'm right handed and usually do prefer the standard left to right. I'd like to hear other peoples' opinions on this.

Anyway...Congrats on this...a well deserved 7/7

Impresionante Ferrando! esto es un foton con las de la ley. Que gozada poder disfrutar de un paisaje asi en persona. Me ha gustado mucho :D

Why do you keep re-posting this same image over and over?

B, you allready re-added your fantastic numbers, thank you, take on land buddy and let the trip continue

 

Emyr I used a high speed shutter and got myself really "anchored" to deck while pressing shutter!

 

John, good point, initially it did happened to me also, being right handed, left to right usually works better for me, but with the sun to the left, like the other photo taken a bit later, the scene maybe gains in visual tension.

 

What I enjoyed here, apart from the nice remembers and feelings of the navigation, and the fantastic light conditions display with the reflections on deck, main sail and boom, are the splashes on boats hull in starboard and portside, and how they completed the overall composition

 

Thank you all again!

Awesome color and movement. I love the spray of the water and sunset sinking into the clouds. The shot is so crip and full of life. Excellent work!

Hermosa composicion y luz de fantasia. Me gusta mucho.

Saludos

uaaaaaaauuuu :) 7/7

Excelente luz, color y encuadre, saludos.

I often appreciate an image for the symbolism and emotion it evokes in me, this one really hits home about life being a journey and we're all sailing off into the sunset on an adventure called life. As most of your compositions it's perfectly composed and exposed even under challenging circumstances. There's something so expansive about the sea that's good for a persons soul.

Great shot. Well composed and the exposure is excellent.

Great shot, almost feel like I'm on the boat.

Splendid!

Being a sailor for some 20yrs I really like this shot. well done!

Ciertamente parece que vas en el barco rumbo a la luz, muy buena Rafael.Saludos

Xcellent...again.

As an amateur photographer, I look for new ideas and visions and you definately have captured nature at its finest. Beautiful exposure and composition.

I feel vain just to comment on this shot, it is so good. The way the sea breaks on the hull and the gold splash on the teak and the long, leading boom add sensation to the image. Having a sunset to sail to, ahh, would but life be that clearly mapped! This is one of those images where excellent technical use of the photographic medium drives the communication. It is so often the case that superior technical rendition, employed for its own sake, only sterilizes.

May I ask what lens you used to capture this angle? The image leaves me with little to say (speackless)... Simply great! Thanks, -Tex

your valuable and great input is really appreciated

 

Charles, the lens I used was a Nikkor 20mm

 

Thank you again

verdaderamente espectacular los coloridos del cielo y su reflejo en el barco. Enhorabuena por la foto

Wow!

 

I feel like I'm right in there with you! Fantastic all around.
