Boat-1.jpg

As much as I myself like showing the "whole picture" in this case I think that bit of sky really pulls attention away from your main subjects. Also, I wish this was framed just a bit to the left so that the prow of the farther boat could be seen more distictly and not look cut off.

I just ran across this picture in a thread, and noticed it was similar to some I've taken, then I noticed you're from Sonoma County where I was born.

Yeah, this should have scored better. I probably would have tried making it more "abstract" by making it a near-silhouette using Curves or Levels or something -- and probably getting the lights to turn psychedelic or something : )

That's a very interesting shot. It might be worth a return visit to zoom in and focus on the seagulls.

Very nice picture, but before you make prints, I think it would look "better" (if less "accurate") if you take out the catchlights on his nose.

Looks more like wheat than the oats I'm used to seeing, but a nice shot regardless of what kind of cereal it is.

I'm glad someone stepped forward to advance the argument for considering chocolate an element.

Good idea -- I wonder, if this were under different rules, this wouldn't look even stronger divided into separate frames (quadtych)?
