pinnacles_0088: I like the formation of birds a lot. The wave behind gives it a power - great timing. But i am not sure about the framing, seems somewhat unbalanced. pinnacles_0032 is neat. So sharp it makes my eyeballs bleed. :) The composition is similar to pinnacles_0017, which is a bit nicer IMHO. I like the pinnacles_0085 and pinnacles_0100, those are excellent.

Pelicans! I like it! I like how they fly. Very good low breeze flyers. They can coast about 12 above the water, seemingly with zero effort...

Actually, I kinda like the darker gray area at the top. Balances out the water nicely, and calls attention to the lighter sky by framing it. Almost like Michaelangelo's painting of The Last Supper.

I'd have liked to have seen that rock a bit better. Maybe next time you could wait until between waves or maybe at lower tide. It might have been an interesting rock, but now we'll never know.

Thanks for the comments. Bruce I'm still trying to formulate just what it is about this shot that bothers me. I can't put a finger on it; every individual component from the composition to the colours to the overall feeling seems fine. I suspect that it's basically too small an image (in pixel dimensions) for the amount of detail in the shot - perhaps a slightly larger presentation would work better. It would certainly show off the pleasing far light effects on the clouds to advantage.

Re: PESO - 17 mile drive
Hello Tom, It was shot in Raw. Processed through C1 LE. Almost no changes in C1 from camera settings. Then processed in Picture Window Pro. First masked the sky at the horizon. Foreground was lightened a bit and saturated for the velvia look needed for this drab day. Sky was saturated separately less than the foreground. Single shot, no blending, just some masking. Glad that you liked it. Bruce Tuesday, November 9, 2004, 12:50:04 PM, you wrote: TC Lovely shot Bruce. I see an excellent composition.
