Yet another great shot Gary 8)
I`ve been dying to get a good shot of here but my 17mm lens just isn`t wide enough :(Nice shot Gary, you can almost feel the energy in the sea. When I look at the castle and the cliff edge to the front of the castle it just doesnt look right. With the background light i would expect to see a more shadowed if not siloutted castle cliff front. Dont get me wrong great image but that for me just knocks the balance a little
Tis a nice shot Gary but to be honest, i dont think its as good a standard as you have set for yourself. I find the sticks on the left a bit distracting, i keep getting drawn to them for some reason. Looking at them again here, are they stick or what are they ? the water is bang on with the movement. Dont get me wrong, its a good image that id be proud to have taken, but IMO its not A Gary McParland Cracker.
Cheers guys, really appreciate the feedback on this one. Seems to be a bit of a marmite shot, Personally i really like it and thought it one of my best from this location but i take on board what your saying.
I blended 3 exposures as the light beaming from behind the castle was impossible to capture the dynamic range with a single image. Maybe i could have left the castle in a bit more silhouette and maybe ive pushed the detail too much but from what i remember at the time i could see detail on the castle. Might try and tone it down a bit to see how it looks.
I know what your saying about the sticks Sirvad, unfortunately its quite a large type of seaweed that is washed up all along this part of the coast and hard to remove as it gets wrapped around the rocks.Thanks again for the comments
