The canal at Uppermill...

Thanks Peter,

I will try your suggestion. It's not a crop yet, but I will definitely try it.

Peter, something like this?

Better IMO. Mind you I like the shot in its original form as well. I'd be interested in how it looks in B&W.

The canal at Uppermill...

Lovely photo Doylem. You're finding some beautiful spots. How long did you have to wait for people to walk into that spot to balance the photo?

 

[Cheese&Apple]

simply spectacular!

Well thank you sir!

Peter, something like this?

Yes, that's it. I think the wider format emphasizes all those great horizontal (horizontal-ish) lines you've got going there.

Lens distortion - no. There wasn't a level spot, straight line or complimentary angle in the place but the food was GREAT. They serve the best fresh Alaskan halibut tacos that go so well with Alaskan White Ale.

Thanks. I generally set up the tripod, 'lock in' a composition and see if anyone walks into it. Better, I reckon, than rushing around...

Thanks. Now I'm not sure. I hate that don't you? When you can't decide between different versions.

Comments always welcome.

Colour for me too.

A rare people shot from me.

Nice...you should do people shots more often. Just a suggestion if you have any crop room, frame this pair more to the left to emphasize the direction that they're looking.

People smell funny

I agree to the left would be better, but originally I had the tail fin in as well so they were just to the right of centre, so not sure if a tighter crop would lose to much. I'll have a look tomorrow when I'm back on my Mac.

People smell funny

You're shooting the wrong people.

Thanks Cheese&Apple, Apple fanboy and MacRy.

Apple fanboy, what's the story behind that people shoot? Museum, movie?

And The Bad Guy please send some of your models my way. I don't care if they smell or not... I have room for them in my castle.

That's a mighty fine abode you've got yourself there. I'll show it to the girls and see if they're interested. I imagine they will be.

Just a couple of pilots chilling at the FairFord Air show. I thought it made for an interesting composition.
