That is a great idea Bill and another good addition to the composition of the image. Thanks for putting that tip into my repertoire of landscape compositions. |

Another exceptional picture. But this time Bill I believe that you, in composing, really made the image. The lines of the snow fences and grasses on the left and on the right lead my eye to the shore and the clouds, and my eyes are fixed there. Your conversion to monochrome seems to cover the entire tonal range.From my experience there is just enough texture in the sand and waves to give the midrange a presence without distracting from the foreground or background. Well done. |

Erik, if the light was low and the ISO high I would suggest processing the image through DxO Deep Prime 3. You will be amazed at the results. |

Ian, thanks for sharing the image of yourself and Guy. I feel like I know you both a little bit better having this image. I think you did a marvelous job setting up for this image and getting the sea into a smooth blanket that stills conveys motion. I want to shoot Portland Head Lighthouse in Maine in July and your info. here will help me choose a starting point. Given the cloudy skies and the jackets you both were wearing I am sure that you had quite a bit of the fresh air! |

Guy, this looks to be a great place to visit. If I ever make it back to England this will be on my list of things to see.
I really like their choice of bold complementary colors for the building and the staircase. I also find the wide variety of shapes drawing my eye into the image and visually digesting all that I find there. As an architectural photography "addict" I could enjoy the picture with or without the poster lady.
Thanks for sharing. |

Erik, this is a very unusual event. I believe you have the patience of a saint to wait long enough o capture something like this. For me the blue of the Gallinules plays nicely with the green of the water foliage.
I am wondering if this required a large crop or if for some reason your export to was a smaller than desired file. Enlarged my eye is having trouble seeing any true detail on the birds.
Hope we get another chance to shoot together soon. |

Vella, to my eye you have made this a masterpiece in your post-processing work. I feel that you hit the colors, the brightness and , above all, the saturation spot on. I'll be the "cropper" this month and suggest that for me the image didn't need quite so much of the rock formation on the left. I removed some and still feel the the beautiful leading line leads my eye into the main focal point - the Watchman! Very Well Done! |

Isaac, I really like this image and the way you have handled the brightness, contrast and colors. To my eye it really evokes the feeling of a cold winter day.
For me the one minor distraction was the lean of the trees on the right which I guessed was a focal length artifact. I placed the image into PS and distorted it by pushing the top right corner until the trees were vertical. I then inverted the selection and used "Content Aware Fill" to add trees back into the open space. I did not take the time to straighten these and repeat on a small scale. |

Isaac, thanks for the feedback. Yes, I also have a version that is cropped more and that was my exact thought. Glad to see you concur. |
