I cropped the original photo into this result. On the left was another

swan which was slightly out of focus. I think the cropped result has

much more 'impact'. What do you think ?

Haven't I seen this before once....or twice or three times????? It's getting old...

Please critique and rate. Thanx.

Is the geyser enough 'subject' to make this pic interesting? What do

you think?

Please critique. Thanks.

Fake....

Great scene... beautiful lit. The photo suffers from jpeg compression though....

Please critique.. Thanks!

Please give your 'two cents'... Thanks.

Long time since I posted anything. This is my first try again. Hope

you like it. Please be straightforward and give good feedback. Thanks !

Why the heck do we cheat and deceat !!! I dont see any waves coming from the boat and the water looks computergenerated... Why cant we just tell people how it is... Photo or computergenerated or both. I dont get it.....

Please point me at flaws, or recommendations otherwise. Thanx.

With this light this scene is not possible to shoot in 'real life'. So, not a photo but a COMPO.

What's up with this people...? Personally i am getting sick and tired of all those compo's....

A compo stays a compo. So you can't say this is a photo. Would it have been just as interesting with a plain gray or blue sky ? Dont think so, so spruce it up with a nice sky and suddenly the compliments are starting to pour in. It is a shame that photography has become to this these days......

Another fine example of wrong thinking... No situation like this will occur in 'real life' unless you have two suns in the sky. You can't have well lit houseboats AND a sunset behind it. Light coming from 2 directions ? Dont think so. My opinion is that if Photoshop is being used, use it wisely and not just to create a 'pretty picture' for exposure.

Perfect wide-angle shot ! Most of the time people get excited about seeing rainbows and zoom in on the occasion. That fact that you didnt produced this stunning image. Well done.

Nice boat. Now let us see this pic with it's original sky please.........?

Sorry, bad composition. Too busy for the eyes. The onlooker is drawn to the middle of the pic, where there's just too much 'patchwork' visible. Don't like compo's anyway. I like the real deal please.

What's wrong with the REAL world. Why couldn't this be a winner without tampering with Photoshop?????

 

Beats me..... but I dont like it.

This is fantastic. A great change from the more and more manipulated shots turning up at this site. At least this scene is something you can encounter in real life instead of all those other pics with fake skies and so on.....

 

Great shot !!!

No comment......

Thanks for your comments.

Unfortunately a slower shutter speed than this wasn't possible with this light conditions
