Well done. I really like this pic. Who would have thought that a container ship could contribute to a serene and peaceful scene. I'm not sure the sky adds much to the picture; I'd tend to crop the top 1/3rd. Well spotted. Cheers, Dave D -
HI John: Not only good timing but well frozen. Good choice of shutter speed. Well done, Dave D -
Hi Marco: Love this sort of photography. So difficult to know where to crop; but this is good. I believe I'm correct in saying that this grille stayed closed, as seen here, until the engine warmed up then the louvres opened to allow air pass through the radiator. Well done, Dave D -
Hi Marco: Well spotted and well timed. Ten minutes later and the moment is gone. Well done, Dave D -
Laurent: Excellent capture of that moment when the wave's energy can't be contained and it first breaks. The colour is interesting; not pleasing from an aesthetic point of view perhaps, but as you say, everything to do with the shore over which it breaks Well captured. Cheers, Dave D -
Hi Tommy: Wonderful detail when viewed large. I'd be tempted to crop the top 1/3rd of the pic. I'm not sure what it adds. to the subject. Well done, Dave D -
Hi Bjørn: I think I'd be tempted to crop the sky. I'm not sure what it adds. And possibly increase the tonal range. Just my opinion. Cheers, Dave D -
Hi Nolan: In response to your comment I'd be interested in hearing what you are looking for. My thoughts are that the pic needs more tonal range and a larger d.o.f. I did download the pic. to see what stop you were using but that info. is not there. It's tough photographing this sort of object. You need a large d.o.f. but that leads to longer exposure times and then the wind can become a factor. As I'm sure you know. Well done, Dave D -
Hi Laurent: Excellent capture. I agree with the previous comment re cropping. Not sure whether I'd crop the sky or the snow but I think I'd lean towards cropping the sky (there's a sky every day... but not daily snow). I'd be tempted to try it in a stark b & w also. Very well done. Cheers, Dave D -
Hi Meir: Always a good choice on this day and b & w, I think, emphasizes the mood. I think it might have helped if the foreground were busier and had more content. Well done - "dulce et decorum est pro patria mori" Cheers, Dave D -
Hi Theodore: This is technically stunning. Perhaps a little more contrast......? However, very well done. Dave D -
Hi: I don't normally like pics that require a title but this title truly takes the pic from ordinary to excellent - and very thoughtfully composed. Well spotted. Cheers, Dave D -
Mark: I think this is a very engaging portrait. I might have been tempted to crop the pic above her head (not sure what it contributes) and perhaps the space on the lhs of the pic. Just my thoughts. Well done. Dave D -
Excellent shot. I'm guessing that you used a polarizing filter to grab the rocks below the water. And not too much sky. Well done. Dave D
