Boat on the Water
-
Lady_NorthParticipant
Taken in Mulranny, Co. Mayo. The view from the house we rented this year.
brownieParticipantdeeorganParticipantBrickeeParticipantnfl-fanParticipantI like the simplicity of the composition and the colour… but that thick black border really takes from the shot… the harshness of the black vs. the softness of the colour in the water and sky don’t marry well in my opinion.
J
Lady_NorthParticipantHere it is without the frame. I personally prefer it with, I think it works.
petercoxMemberI’m with John on this. The shot is nice, but the border was too distracting.
I’d also say that the boat is a little close to the left edge of the frame – it would be better just a smidge closer to the middle.
Cheers,
PeterAlan RossiterParticipantNoel (Brownie) took my exact words when I was thinking of what to say. I would initially say to loose the bouy on the bottom right side but this may loose the balance of the image.

BrickerParticipantI think its lovely the way it is.
If pushed, my only suggestion would be to crop out the chimney (or whatever it is) on the top right tree line.
And for the border? Well, I think it does what its supposed to – as in frame the picture. It wouldnt be necessary on a printed framed version mind, but for this media I like it.
SeaviewParticipantLady_NorthParticipantThanks for all the comments. Much appreciated. As a total amature I really appreciate any comments made.
Will play around with it a little more to see if I can improve the shot.
Thanks again,
Siobhan
snaphappyMemberagree with the comments above I would not exclude the reflection from the boat I would give it more space great shot though
Harry LimeParticipantI was admiring this last night, never got around to commenting. Lovely shot – well done.
pauloconParticipantAgree with the above – lovely shot. Only small gripe would be the part of the chimney to the right of the image – I would take this out altogether.
JMac-2006ParticipantVery nice image lovely calm scene – lucky to holiday there – agree with the comments on the chimney or post on the right would crop that out – also the bouy on the right corner could be cloned out to see the result might be cleaner overall
all said a great image well taken
