really really nice pics – love the light and colouring and the water movement. For me though there seems to be something off about the ‘village’ in the background it doesn’t seem to sit into the picture ‘right’. That, however, is only my totally non-techie, personal opinion!

Keep up the good work.

Thanks John & Miki g

Sounds like there are different people who like different things!

But at least the bw conversions seem to be ok!

Hi Sinead,

love the colours, though I think I might have cropped to remove some of the black on the right hand side

But I really want to pick up the tripod and run to the jetty to take the clouds that should look good from over there!

thanks jb7

Just wondering if the comment about the 3×2 is a personal preference or if it is a ‘rule’ along the lines of the rule of thirds? Is there a ‘better’ ratio for portrait shots of landscapes? Still learning here :roll:

Also wondering about the lower view point – before I go there again – wouldn’t a lower angle mean that there would be less of the water visible? And that the rocks, especially on the right hand side, would merge together? I get that it would emphasise the stones in the foreground but still wondering – guess the only way to know is to find out! :idea:

Thanks Mark! As usual in my hurry I missed something – this time the [img]tags! :oops: Thank you for your help :)

Thanks Sinead and Miki G for your compliments. I don’t know though Miki G – for someone who says they’re not one for landscapes you seem to have a pretty good handle on it! ;)

not qualified to c&c – but fair play, well shot. Hope you had a long lens, I don’t think I’d fancy beging that close to that much flying horseflesh!

Perhaps some PS work on burning the sky would make it more dramatic?

Good work

Thanks miki g and zoundz for your feedback. Will try again – the problem with getting a lower angle with such an enthusiastic dog is to stop her from coming running to me, wet, sandy and slobbering all over the camera! But she’ll have fun while I’m trying.
