What lies beneath
Posted: Thu Apr 03, 2014 3:19 pmBotany bay, could be anything down there, a few dead bodies?
I like the way the oyster shell encrusted wooden beams add to mystique of what lies beneath. Almost spooky.
Great photo.

Great sky and the colour in the foreground water diminishing to the pastel tones in the mid ground is fantastic. Nicely done Gerry.

Yep. I really like the treatment you have given this image, it does not feel overdone, but quite relaxing and smooth.
Rooz has a point with the orientation though, was there a reason for this?
I was to taken with the image at first to even consider technical stuff about it, I guess that means it is good.

Regarding the portrait orientation, in this scene there is a sailing club to the left and not much to the right side, which when taken in landscape (of which i did take one) i found it too cluttered. I do however take the point that the left hand side does feel jarred and cutoff..

Now that's what I call art. (Not that I'd know)
Thanks; masterful.
