A nice way to spend your day

    On holidays in Florida recently I came across this guy fishing off Cocoa Beach, I was going for the silhoutte thing, didn’t quite pull it off but hey, no one’s perfect, whadya think ????

    C+C????………

    Thanks, duly resized, I used a polarised filter, might account for some of the darkness??

    This photo is quite tiny and because it is both tiny and dark it is very hard to comment.
    Perhaps try a resize from the original at about 800 pixels on the horizontal, so we can see the tone and texture a bit better.

    I see what you mean about trying to get the silhoutte, but the result seems to have left the man a little blurred – it doesn’t seem sharp enough. I also think that it would have been nice to see the full reflection of the man in the water.. or as much as possible anyway. Do you have a larger crop? Catching the light on the fishing line is a nice touch.

    I think you could do with cropping some off the top, and maybe a little at the left, but not too much.

    There also seems to be quite a lot of dust on either your camera or lens?

    Thanks for the comments, all valid, this is the original photo size, it’s not cropped, if you look at the bottom you can see the waterline, as for the dust I honestly didn’t notice it till now and you’re right it glaringly obvious. I did darken it a bit on my computer before posting but not much.
    Thanks, I’ll know what to look for next time
