The power of the sea never fails to impress me.
Add the beauty of Australia's East coast and the result is incredible. http://www.ryadia.com/pod/24-05-07.htm -- Douglas, Those who can, just do it. Those who can't become bullies. http://www.usenet-bully-faq.org/ |

I like the inclusion of the little spit of land to the right, it tells you there is more to this scene... perhaps its a bay. I'm always wondering where to crop scenery for best effect. EG how much coast, how much sea... |

I like the inclusion of the little spit of land to the right, it tells you there is more to this scene... perhaps its a bay. I'm always wondering where to crop scenery for best effect. EG how much coast, how much sea... I think there are two types of photographers. Ones who crop every image and one who only crops when they absolutely have to. Like when the lens is not long enough. I fall into the latter category. Many years ago I shot a few hundred 35mm pictures of Outback Australia which all needed cropping due to not composing in the camera. I probably could have sold at least 20 of them, many times over but because when I copied them cropped down, the ultimate resolution simply wasn't there, I sold none. Ever since then I have been determined to compose my picture in the viewfinder. Rare exceptions exist but this pic is not one of them. It is full frame composure. The land in the right is a small Island, more like a rock pile. Otherwise there is nothing but the Pacific Ocean. -- Douglas, Those who can, just do it.

When I created a domain name with godaddy.com for $10 a year, they offer me "free" web hosting for it. They still get their pound of flesh by using a header to display Google's infamous "ADWORDS". So in the pure context of your objection; NO, I am not engaged in self promotion or in advertising any products. My web host does however recover the cost of providing me with free hosting by advertising above my web pages. Would you prefer I spend $20 a month on a hosting package so I can show you my pictures without annoying you at the same time? -- Douglas, Those who can, just do it.

Those who can't become bullies.http://www.usenet-bully-faq.org/ Nicely done Doug. Shows nice detail in fore ground. Having a person in the image shows the true scale of the rocks and waves. Quite impressive. I took a "rough" measurement of the horizon at each edge and in the center of the picture. Even though the horizon looks slightly bowed, it isn't. On my monitor the colors do not have a red cast to them. Just clean. So you can take nice images. Always thought so. Draco |
