About A little late for a Fourth of July posting I know, but I'm just now getting back in town and caught up. Found this scene in the wee early hours of July 4th at the City Dock in Annapolis, Maryland.

Brilliant composition. I like the silhouette, the color and its saturation.


Antonio Trincone   {K:23167} 7/8/2005
nice silhouette work, just right for project 51

Great shot Robert. I like the composition. I think the bar on the upper right is a little distracting. I would have cropped it out.

Hi Robert, The translucency of both the navigation light and through the flags make this image tick. Also, the diagonal composition of the main rig works well. The line in the top right corner is a bit distracting, though. The choice fo the shallow DOF, only hinting at the clouds in the sky would initially not be my solution, but I think it works better than with a wider DOF. Good shot, interesting capture.

Cheers,

Hugo

Thanks Hugo for the comments. The black line in the upper right corner (part of the boat) has been taken care of with a little crop. Funny how we sometimes miss such obvious problems in our own images.

As for the DOF, I had to use a pretty fast shutter speed since the boat was bobbing up and down pretty good. The trick was catching a well focused, well exposed shot with the flags blowing just right. It only took about 130 shots to get one I liked.

Thanks again for the comment.
