Bird Boat

Not sure of the category...comments?

like the photo, but weird color sky......6/7

Fabian, this is a sepia version of the shot...overall brownish tones.

The sepia toning is not really working here. To be honest with you I work with sepia tones alot and certain images no matter how hard I try don't just work with the tonality I force upon them.

I like the sepia here. Good image.

Thanks for the varying opinions - :)

I love the toning. Really accentuates both the boat & the birds. Nice, nice, nice! The birds seem to be flying a circular holding pattern around the boat. Well worth a frame!

The circling birds are great. It's wonderful that you were able to capture them in neat circle like this. The bit of concrete jutting in at left is a slight distraction; it could probably be cloned oout. I'm unsure about the toning, but I'd tend to say ease up on it. I like the image, especially -- aside from the birds -- the way the light is falling on the bow and cabin of the boat.

I didn't tone this in the "normal" way - I used layer effects, rather than grayscale/quadtones like I normally do. I can try doing regular toning and see if that is more pleasing.

Hi Kim. Its the tones that drew my atention. Love it Great shot

Thanks, Chad - I appreciate your time! I thought the tones and colors were cool, but I do have this in b&w, too.
