Defensive

Coastal defences on the Firth of Forth. All comments appreciated.

Sharp, clean, extraordinary well illuminated picture.

 

Amazing light & DOF ^^^ Max regards

Hi Francisco & Ali. The illumination came from a variety of sources. There was a nuclear power station just behind me which was lit up like....well a nuclear power station! also a small pier which was providing a different coloured light to the lower concrete castings. These concrete things are huge with terrifying crevasses between them perhaps twenty or thirty feet deep. I was standing on one of them with my tripod, I had a very delicate climb back to terra firma in the dark when I had finished.

 

You can just make out a huge beautifully lit factory on the left and a light house sticking up on the horizon. Simon

What a goldmine of shape and texture, fantastic light and color....I wish I was there to photograph it as well!

Fantastic.

Wow Simon... Quite surreal, and as always, extremely well done... Mike

 

Wow! What a show of light and colour. I'm partial to night-photography anyways and this is as good as it gets.

Very beautifull light

Perfecta nitidez, tonos y profundidad.

Saludos.

Beautiful composition, very nice exposure and lovely tones, great work!

compelling in so many ways...the treatment is perfect. I wish that our waters of defense were this smooth.

Very striking image, Simon, and technically outstanding execution.

Hi Simon! I like the good composition, great colour contrast and superb sharpness of this photo. Thank you for sharing.

Great shot - a striking image!

Your shots are, are always, outstanding!

I like this one very much and I understand the problems you got when taking this shot, but the result is beautiful also if this is not a "natural" landscape!

The quality of this image is superb: it would be interesting if you could attach a little 100% crop to let us appreciate the high quality of your work...

Congratulations, Alberto.

Simon that is not only dedication to climb over those big blocks but really creative to use that man made studio of artifical light. Excellent shot original and creative a pleasure to view. Regards Carl

What a bizarre scene, very well done and fully of interest.

this is a very good addition to your gallery, a little bit different scenery and not only natural light.

very impressive the colors, and the technical perfection. excellent photo.

Hi Simon!

wow! Superb!

Light, colour composition and I like the twinkle in the background.

Regards,

Hello Simon again, would you please come to :

 

http://photo.net/photodb/photo?topic_id=1481&msg_id=00T5QF&photo_id=8980512&photo_sel_index=0

 

and give me your feedback on my Floodbank photo, we had the same vision but with a different approach.

 

Mine was captured on the 31th of March this year but I just uploaded it.

 

Your insight would be much appreciated.

 

Regards!

This is outrageously good.

Deeply unfair to the rest of us!!!! ;)

 

Very well done indeed Simon, this is a truly lovely picture of something that, perhaps, shouldn't look so lovely.

 

All the very best,

 

Rob

 

wow truly a stunning image Simon one of my favourites of yours. I love the mix of colour temperatures from the different light sources and as someone has already mentioned an industrial looking landscape such as this has no business looking quite so edibly good..
