the sky make the photo here
i think shadows are a bit blue and i'd love more details in the snow on the low right part
did you bring any effect here ? top right mountain seams to have 2 colors

@bigoode, no effects here, this is right out of the scanner. This was shot on Ektachrome in the late 1970's and recently scanned with a Nikon Coolscan. This was shot at @8000 feet elevation and the sky does get very blue up there, so there is probably a bit of Ektachrome blueish cast and a bit of blue sky reflected by the snow.

Very nice one, I like the treatment. I might have cropped a little of the right to loose the dark edge and the boxes leaning at the bottom.

Merci Olivier, me alegro que esta composición le haya gustado asi como el ambiente conseguido. Saludos

Thanks Clyde por su comentario, me alegro que le haya gustado el tratamiento empleado en esta composición. No me percaté en los elementos del lado derecho tal y como usted comenta, considero que tiene razón aunque creo que no influye demasiado en el resto del trabajo. Saludos

like this a lot
exept the sky effects because "too much" and distract me from the subject

Según mi traductor, el tratamiento fuerte del cielo le distrae del sujeto Anthony. Si es así entiendo lo que me quiere decir y agradezco mucho el haber reparado en mi fotografia y por supuesto el haber parado a comentarla. Saludos

a cool place to be, but i don't like the composition very much. another angle would be better.

Loving these contradicting comments...goes to show some things are a matter of opinion!! thanks for the input!!

It is a little blurry for me, but it looks like a very relaxing place to sit.

Hi,

Nice shot - the comp is a little static, i think - colors and overall feel of the shot is pretty good - the area in the rear of the photo is somewhat darker than it needs to be. Nice effort.

Best,
Jon

i'd prefer focus on benches
it's very lovely & peacefull like this
maybe less grass at first plan ?
anyway exactly what i need right now "peace" :D

i'd crop the white thing at top left ...

hah nice.

Wonderful! Very dramatic.

Impresionante.
Muy buena.
Me encanta :)

Fantastic art! Love the imagination here!

beautifull colors here !

I'm glad you like it ~ thank you for your comment, bigoode!

The thumbnail looked quite unremarkable, but I like the shade of blue. Up close, it's a fabulous pic. The different shades of blue are absolutely gorgeous!

thanks.

absolutly beautifull
my father was painting a bit like that !
a great one !!
clap clap

Maravillosa, con una estética muy elegante. Felicitaciones.

Wonderful, with aesthetic a very elegant one. Congratulations

Love this one!

absolutely fabulous by the simplicity of this shot and i've never seen such before
clap clap clap !!
that's creative
Shine on

WONDERFUL IDEA !!! My favourite photo - such a simple idea brought to perfection. Even my little son plays with the spoon reflection every lunchtime but to do this with it would never come to my mind. Congratulations playful soul !

This is fantastic. Very creative and well done. Congrats.

Thanks again everyone.

This boat is a bulk carrier called the Pasha Bulker. It ran aground on Nobbys Beach in Newcastle, NSW Australia on 8th June this year. On the 8th & 9th June Newcastle had its worst weather in 35 years. Plenty of damage, some loss of life etc but this was the most talked about event.

Newcastle is a harbour city and we are used to seeing these huge ships off the coast. Just not ON the coast.

Great shot. Have you use HDR rendering ?

Tones are awesome here !
really

personnellement, j'aurais noirci un chouia les tons sombres du ciel
mais ca aurait été moins naturel je pense
félicitations !
tres belle photo !
Shine on

Great photo !

Really powerful.

very nice, the only change would be the background which is very active and distracts from the subject.

i agree...background is a little distracting

Thank you for all the comments and critiques, and for my first Feature. :-D I was pleasantly surprised at how this one turned out. I took bunches of shots with different lightings and backgrounds. It's a clear glass bowl with clear clean water. The colour of this photos is not altered or enhanced. The sparkles are natural as well, air bubbles on the sides of the bowl. :-)

I love it! Perfect :-)

I gree, stunnig. Worthy of using for something like an advertisement of CD. Very nice. Great clarity.

Yeah... a bit more contrast would be sweet. Great composition!

I like the composition.
the colors and contrast remind me of a lomo shot.

It has an "old" feel to me. Like a 1960's photo.

What does the sign/banner say?

I like the composition. I'd recommend bumping up the contrast a little bit. Other than that, nice shot.

Love the mood here
