    Michael, not quite sure what you are talking about, but the darker tones at the horizon line are clouds and their reflections on the water. This is a silver gelatin print. There is no photoshopping done.
  1. Nice photo from something normally taken for granted and not given much thought. I would have to disagree about needing to know where the line comes from. I believe that is part of the lure. To me the best photos are the ones that don't answer all the questions but instead leave the door open.

    In all fairness Glen, I think this picture tells plenty about what HE wants us to know about him. HE chose the setting, HE chose the clothes, and HE chose the pose. Not all graduation pictures have to be stereotypical and have someone holding a football, or wearing a letter jacket, or all that crap you normally see in staged graduation pictures. The man just wanted some nice, normal pictures to give to his friends.

    Nice shot Elaine. I like the pose and location. The only question I have is if you're using that nice, fast lens then why not blur the background with DOF instead of manipulating it in Photoshop? It looks like you used gaussian blur on the background which tends to give a halo effect around the subject you keep sharp. That being said it actually works for this photo.

    Actually, I think the fill flash caused that shadow. The subject was backlit and I guess my flash was set too strong for fill. Seemed kinda hard to do since it was about 2PM and sunny but the flash definitely overpowered the sun here.
