If it was a 'posed' shot I would have moved the boat to lower in the left corner, it's a bit tight to the tree here. And you might have over sharpened just a bit. Look at the lower dark branches, along the ridge top, and see if you detect a sharpening halo. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Justin Watson (Justin) Msg: #2 May 15th 2007 11:20:14 | I think the tree dominates a photo where i really love the lake and reflection..... Its very nic i just think i'd have preferred 2/3 of the shot of the ;lake and 1/3 of the tree. Not the other way around. Maybe landscape orientation may have worked better here also.... | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Michael L Turner (teamturner) Msg: #3 May 15th 2007 11:51:50 | Great points on all accounts. Justin, you definitely made me look at the picture a second time and see something I missed. I think it would have been better landscape. Thanks for the advice! | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Adrian Warren (AdrianW) Msg: #4 May 17th 2007 15:41:44 | Conversely, whilst I agree that less tree might be beneficial, I prefer the portrait orientation you've chosen. If it had been mine, I think I'd have zoomed in on the boat a bit more - as I feel it's the focal point for the scene. Then it's a tough call between the beautiful autumn colours, and the reflections. In summary, it's a lovely scene, but I think I'd have shot it lower tighter and slightly to the left. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Justin Watson (Justin) Msg: #5 May 26th 2007 08:07:03 | Michael, I guess the thing we all learn on here is to not look at a subject the same way all the time. You see something, i see something, everyone else sees something. All those somethings are not the same. Digital makes it so easy to try different things. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Adrian Warren (AdrianW) Msg: #6 May 26th 2007 17:37:30 | Yup - at the end of the day photography is subjective, there's no right or wrong answer - just more or less popular ones ;) | |||||||||||||||||||||
