I would have got in bit closer and shot from a lower angle to try and 
get rid of the trees in the background.


The rocks in and the waves in the centre look good, but the shape of the 
rocks gets lost in the trees.


This is a pity because the light and the action of the waves is great.

Sasha, I like the overall exposure generally, but would lighten the areas of 
deepest shadows somewhat. Wave action is a nice inclusion and the background 
trees add to the depth and interest.

Re: peso - just peso

2010-10-11 Thread Bob Sullivan
Sasha,
I think Rick's comments are onto something.
There is too much geometry for me.
Crop off the awning piping at the bottom,
or the mechanicals and sky of the top and it looks better.
As is, the picture seems to have three parts,
awning piping/hangers,
stucco wall with sloping drain pipe,
and roof mechanical structure with sky.
I can't get them to mesh...
Regards,  Bob S.

 entire bottom whatever-it-is, and some of the sky to balance things.

 I've been looking at this for a while, and there are really 5 maybe 6 
pictures there, depending on how you crop them and almost all are 
better, (I was going to say more interesting, but not really, this shot 
is interesting),  than the overall composition.

Re: peso - just peso

2010-10-10 Thread Walter Gilbert
   I really like the way the sky looks and wish there'd been more of it 
in this shot.  I think I see what you were going after with the 
tonalities, but more sky, and consequently less of the area where the 
metal tubing is, would have made it more visually effective, I think.  
Still, I do like the basic elements of the shot.


Hope that helps.
