Re: PESO: Summer Sunset
Interesting...It is a sunset, but has a coolness to it, like it is rather cold outside. That aspect interests me. I looked at several sizes of this as they were available. The small one looked pretty nice as a pano, but as I increased in size to the largest, I didn't find that there was anything in the right half of the image that was worth looking at. IOW, it worked just fine for me as about half the image area, all on the right side. Hope this makes sense. -- Best regards, Bruce Wednesday, July 19, 2006, 2:59:46 PM, you wrote: JB> I colleaque of mine lives very near the sea (most Danes do ;-).

RE: PESO: Summer Sunset
That's right, Bruce. If you see it as an image. But, as I have said before - when it comes to watching images, people can be devided in two groups: Those who look at the image as an image. And those who look at what ever is in the image. People, who live here would be in the last category - they would like to see more of the coastline, regardsless of image quality issues. If this image was printed 2 m (6 feet) with, surely people would be able to recognize details in the landscape - perhaps even their own home ;-) Normally I belong to the first group - and would agree with you. But images like this are meant for viewing by people in the local comunity. What I find interesting is, that the colours are exceptionally true to real life - no "warming" of the sunset colours. It's was not a cold night, and during the day we had appr. 30 degrees Celsius Regards Jens Bladt http://www.jensbladt.dk +45 56 63 77 11 +45 23 43 85 77 Skype: jensbladt248 -Oprindelig meddelelse- Fra: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] vegne af Bruce Dayton Sendt: 20. juli 2006 00:29 Til: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Emne: Re: PESO: Summer Sunset oops - I meant the left half of the image...brain fart - sorry. -- Best regards, Bruce Wednesday, July 19, 2006, 3:09:49 PM, you wrote: BD> Interesting...It is a sunset, but has a coolness to it, like it is BD> rather cold outside.

I don't think that the right is too empty. I DO think that the horizon is too central. Tricky to do anything with in this format, though.

RE: PESO: Summer Sunset
Thank very much, Marnie. I really glad you like it. A little to the right of the centre of the image there's a building that catches the sun (small yellow dot). It is actually a huge ware house - the central ware house for Denmark and Sweeden for a very popular retail chain called NETTO (Owned by MAERSK, one of the worlds largest tranporting companies, I believe). I did the local plans for the freight village in which the ware house was built in 2001.
