    Greetings all,

    I’ve just found this forum and here’s my first post:

    Good shot, I like the angle you chose…my preference would be to see more darkness in the shot.. maybe some levels adjustment if you were inclined , just to bring the mood nd decay out a little more.

    Welcome to the the forum … happy hunting ;)

    Welcome to the forum Joe and a very nice shot to introduce yourself with. Great contrast, great perspective, nice conversion.. very nice shot.

    Thanks folks. Those are two familiar names (Phototakers).

    Definitely see what you mean Lorraine. I toyed with that shot a lot trying to figure out what I wanted from it. I had it darker, brighter, all over the place. Maybe I’ll have another toy with it :-)

    How I said in your introduction, I love this photo.
    You may try to crop the bottom up to the white ‘thing’ (incl. it). I think it will come up more focused on the wreck and sky.

    I totally agree, a little more dark would be more to my preference.

    Great shot all the same though, love the angle.

    The composition is spot on, agree that maybe a tonal adjustment would help. Well taken :wink:

    hi Joe,

    great shot. love the angle!

    Think the contrast on the top half of the boat is fantastic. Unfortunately it becomes a little flat towards the bottom. Although the old tyres are an interesting addition I’d be inclined to crop them out and leave the emphasis a little higher up.

    welcome

    Thanks for the C&C folks. I think I’ll have to revisit this one. Dang, I need more hours in the day! :-)

    Joe, keep an eye open for the second round of the competition. The theme is ‘Decay.’ May be a shot worth entering.

    Thanks for the tip Steve. I’m trying to drum up ideas for this month. Unfortunately, only the obvious ideas are coming to me.
