Hey Tom,
Very nice mood and comp on this. You used the curve of the shoreline very well and it leads you into the distant fog covered land mass very well. I don't mind the corner rock that much.....as in these cases, with so many rocks, you have to choose a spot to crop.....and IMO it almost acts to push my eye into the shoreline even more......instead of pulling it away. I may lighten it a bit overall.......but I do like this as presented also. Nicely done.
Tom,
I also like this; composition & mood are great. For web presentation, or elsewhere if it will be surrounded by white (as it is here in the forum), I would agree with Roman about lightening it a little, as the surrounding white makes it look rather dark. OTOH, for a print I might leave the tonality as is and use a black mat to make the image stand out more.
Tom,
I too like it and feel the comp works well for the reasons Roman mentioned.
I agree that if you lighten it, you'd lose the misty feeling you want. Using a black matt, as suggested, would be the way to go.. A white one would swallow the phot and a dark brown would be overkill in the tonality. Great photo. I like the sharpness of the rocks in the foreground. Sets up the mist of the other areas. Was this in Scotland?
Tom,
The composition caught my eye when I was glancing through the thumbnails, I like it. Tried several crop versions, but felt this is better as I was interfering with the shoreline. I ended up darkening a bit and still liking it. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers,
