    Co. Kerry.. where else? There isn’t a whole lot of detail in the background to begin with, so…..

    I like it its really simple. Detail in the background would just be distracting.

    I think it would have looked better if the person was walking instead of standing still.

    Cheers for the feedback Moongirl.. The person was walking, just away from me, hence why they look static…

    I can see where you coming from, but the shot is natural, no set up.. This is one of my first shots, back when i was trying to find my feet with this lark..

    cheers for the feedback,
    Alan

    It’s a great shot. I know Inch Beach very well and yet I haven’t got that shot. It just goes to show that there’s plenty of photographic potential even in the one location.

    Hi Jamie, thanks.. I’ve been to Inch quite a few times and have always come back with different shots, that particular day was a bright and very beautiful April day, but in color the image i felt lacked contrast, it was missing something, tho others liked it..

    That shot was taken nearly 4 years ago now, back then i was shooting with a Canon EOS 10D and a really cheap Sigma 24-105mm.

    I don’t use filters, except for the obvious B&W MRC UV filters.. The vignetting i add is done through Adobe Camera RAW in Lightroom as it gives each shot different results, i find that it works only with some shots, depending on how i want to process it.. And i wont always do it, i try not to….
