Motif: Wide Angle - "Father and Son"

Motif: Wide Angle – “Father and Son”
Note: This image was painted underneath the bridge going towards Key Biscayne. Here we see a father teaching his son how to fish. This is a favorite fishing hot spot; where the locals come on a daily basis to cast their lines, shoot the breeze and watch the sun set over Key Biscayne.

I like the anlge of this image very much. Perhaps a bit more room on the right. and perhaps even a tad lower, and check the horizon level. But I like how you used the lens in this image, and the details you achieved. Do you have any sunset images from this spot?

Gus, I love the curved line that leads you in and the bridge slowly leading you out. Very gentle feeling.The sky w/ clouds and blue very nice

Hi Gus for my idea of Close up WA I would have gotten right besides the father and son which may or may not have been a good idea !!! People are funny about having their pictures taken !!!

This is a beautiful image really showcasing the bridge and the angel is really wide !! at first look I thought it was the Seven Mile Bridge to KW !! Neat !!!

The sweep of the concrete and the bridge is very effective and appealing. The father-son theme works for me also. The slight tilt of the horizen is a bit distracting from an overall beautiful image.
