Trying to achieve a "still life drama", by using extreme light.

Hi Jörgen,

I like the picture! How did you take it?
Thanks for sharing!

Asher

Also do you wish comment or critique?

Also editing, versioning or not?

If you do, a x2 larger image would be a great idea. However, that's just a possible idea.

Asher, both comments and critique welcome.

Noticed that the sun was coming down, but didn't want to take normal sunset picture, but something with a bit more drama to it.
30D with Sigma 18-50/2.8, 1/1600 sec, f/18, ISO 200 (for a bit more DR headmore).

Jörgen,

There is also, BTW, an interesting separate picture hidden on the left of the solitary woman looking out to sea. This would crop to a nice portait shaped images.

Hello,

I like the sun and sky.

The foreground, at least on my monitor, is too dark for my liking. I think I'd prefer eiither silhouette or a little brighter image to be able to discern what is there.

The effect of a bright sun in the image works well.

Also it appears that it needs about 1/2 degree rotation clockwise to be level.

Thanks for posting it.

Thank's Steve.
Actually it is almost level, think it was 0.14 degres off. I think it's the bridge that fools the eyes, it isn't straight ahead.

Nice. A couple suggestions...

Jorgen,

I like your shot. If you could lighten the dock area a little I think that would improve it. Also, what's going on with the sky near the pole on the left side of the shot? Is that some kind of reflection? Or another light source? I'd be inclined to clone that out.

Hi Tom

Tried it a little lighter, but I think that took away some of the drama.
That thingie near the pole, is a halo starting to form, unfortunatly it didn't get much bigger.
