Beautiful and very dramatic! Love the direct shot into the snow! Excellent work.

I love the composition of this image.
Also, great job with capturing the detail of the snow.

a very dramatic view and i like the low angle and the composition. nice toning!

Because of the lighting and color it's almost like it could be the moon or the sun. I really like the exposure. It gives a very unique feeling.

Thank you for all your nice comments. It is highly appreciated!

Nice action shot - whilst it is a little blurry it doesn't take away from the action.

Nice work!

agreed with the above comments: too blury (or may be too croped?).
And it would be nice to see the entier sail of the flying guy...
But I do love the waves and the water movement :-)

Hey, thanks all. This was taken with a very long VR lens and my bad, but handheld. So yes it is a bit soft. The upper left guy is attached to a kite that is 50-60 feet above him, so at this framing impossible to get the kite in the shot. I know the depth perception is compressed through this lens, but it looked to me like the kite guy went right over the head of the sailboard guy!!

well composed, but for me it would bebbetter with more sharpness and the focus on the first person.

My bad for the flying guy... should have seen that it was a kite surfer.

@Martine
taken early today at zürich airport :)

@Beamer
thanks :)

Hey, Vernon, have you ever, or would you be willing to do a tutorial on this color treatment? I see you use it a lot and have always been curious how you get it so nice.

@Beamer
this kind of toning takes some time (0,5-2 hrs) and depends of the "content".
this shot has a triple toning in split-mode,
mostly done by using 3 tone layers for each shade of grey available in the shot.
so if you have 15 grey values, you have 45 layers just for toning. the adjustment takes the longest time.

:-)

I knew it wasn't something with 1 button...

such a dynamic shot
congrat one more time

nice overall picture with a great theme.

That's funny ! I just posted a picture from the exact same spot !! :-))
I just simply love this place...
Nice capture from the children at play.
How did you like Bordeaux ? (it's my home town ;) )

brilliant with the reflections, but i think the image turns to the left!?

nice one.
I am thinking maybe you can go more closer, include less sky and more reflection.

I love the reflections...great shot!

Merci Eric ;-)
Thanks lolly, very kind of u ;-)

bravo pour le featured
toujours ce traitement qui te caractérise !

Merci Lyonnais...Et oui toujours la "PI Touch" :-D

great angle, perfect cross processing and i like the symmetry in there. cool one!

i like the symmetry and i like the color contrast...
great job

Very interesting shot, Unique.

A unique shot for sure captures you attention to the white right away, Maybe a little brighter would bring more out in the background :)

I love the "movement" of the pic. Very nice!

really nice done, you'd captured the movement very well!

wow, what a magical photo
Nice process
Congrat

Great balance with the saturation.

Excellent shot. One of the few in the topic I actually appreciate!

Yes. I like this. The composition is out of the schemes

Very nice! I like it! The colors are great!

Excellent!

Perfect for this topic. The b&W works well for this shot. I would have used the first arch as a natural top frame. Otherwise, well done.

Nice composition and perspective. I like the tonality. Very well done.

Great image. No criticism. What's the story behind the building?

I think I wrote something on one of the other pics, the one with the Theatre.

Amazing shot - instant fave!

Best,
Jon

Thank you everyone! I'm honored with such reactions.

Excellent control of the lighting situation. I love the composition you chose too.

This is good work, you have caught the beauty of dereliction perfectly.

Instant fave! - Great shot - thanks for sharing your vision.

Best,
Jon

Thank you! This is becoming more and more one of my favorite photos.

Love this shot! Amazing! I think the colours work well with the whole ethereal feel to the image!

Esta fotografía dice tanto, que resulta casi imposible resumirlo. Enhorabuena. Saludos.
