About I never dare go out and about by myself with my camera (just in case I get mugged!)- but now I've joined the local camera club, and hopefully will be out and about more often.

Hi Sally, I Like this shot. I Like the colors from the boat....They really stand out well against the Dark sky. This shot is Postcard or calander worthy! Well seen and presented.

Best Regards

Very nice capture Sally, like the composition with dramatic formation of clouds in background.
Good work, well done.

Another very lovely shot, Sally...

Does that mean you'll start shooting landscapes? I must admit I've wondered about the mugging aspect in some of the less busy parts of Warsaw. I tend to keep my camera under a jacket and only brign it out when required.

Very clever: port and starboard, red and green. Great shot with a very moody sky.

Very nice shot Sally, great colours, clarity and mood.
Congrats,

You used that dirty 'L' word I don't like!
If you do see some - it is pure desperation to find something to fire my camera at!
I've missed you this passed week:)


Margaret Sturgess   {K:49403} 10/6/2005
That is a great shot, love it the balance of the boats each side in different colours all set against a great sky. Excellent

This is one powerful image Sally. Such vibrant colours coupled with an awesome sky. I like how the foot boarding takes the eye to the main subject too. Title is spot on in line with the way each boat is listing. Fabulous shot.

Oh, WOW!!!! Sally this is beautiful. If I save pics to my favorites this would definately go there. Perfect colors and perfect light.

Jim Bambery

PS: your portfolio is awesome, you do good!

WOW!!!!!!


Sally Morgan   {K:9219} 10/10/2005
Thanks James - you've been on my Associates list for a while!


Neil White   {K:9043} 10/11/2005
I think the concept, clarity, lighting and colour here are absolutely fantastic.

I know it's always easier to see after the event, but I would have gone off to the left (if that was possible) so that the path had a longer lead in to the boats. I would als possibly have changed the lens angle so that I could make the transition between land and sky fall at one of the "third" points.

Having said that, this is still a marvelous image.

Neil


Sally Morgan   {K:9219} 10/11/2005
I like the idea of moving left so I got a longer lead in - wish I'd thought of it last weekend!


Colin Cartwright   {K:15699} 10/12/2005
Impressive and unusual image, Sally. Excellent crop and subject placement. Good sky, layered by the look of it, and well done. The rickety, wooden pier, is nicely, dead-centred. The restrained colours look natural and, overall, the image is excellent.

As for being mugged, the best shots for me, are always when I'm out and about (usually in the hills) on my own. Just sheep, cows and flies to mug me!

Regards
Colin

I love the woy you have captured the tones. The balance is great. Lovely shot!


Linda Bique   {K:73877} 10/15/2005
Sally this is awesome, I opened this and said "WOW where do you find stuff like this". I love it! There are so many things going for it, the old and rustic wood, the pier as a lead-in to the image, the drama in the sky, wonderful complementary colors, even the overgrown and forgotten grass ties in well with these old and neglected boats, and a creative title as well..I like the angle of the mast on the green boat, really well seen and taken. Is it not safe where you are? I'm glad you found a club to join and hope to see many more of your works....Linda


Mohamed Banna   {K:34210} 10/26/2005

John Beavin   {K:4477} 11/2/2005
Having read all the comments I really do not see how this shot could be improved, even the overcast sky is interesting, congratulations Sally.


Omar Amroussy   {K:3396} 11/9/2005
very nice


Martin Halley   {K:499} 11/24/2005
Hi Sally,

I really love this one, it works in every department for me.

About 5 years ago I purchased an oil painting from a major London Gallery. It was the best one there at the time of a major selling exhibition. It was of boats and an almost a perfect pair to your photo.

So you joined the local camera club. Don't let the competition judges get you down, they can be complete idiots sometimes, but grat fun nevertheless.

Tahnks for your recent critique (with which I have to agree).

Kind regards.


Ian Miller   {K:7611} 11/28/2005
I said those Mooring ropes shrink when wet, but would you listen., No! Or were you just steaming ahead of those storm clouds back to shore JUST a little TOOOOOOO FAST!!!!? Nice picture by the way, oh, and thx for your comments.

Had to end on a nice note, as I see you have a Tiger for a pet lol. ;-)

Ian


Len Webster   {K:21635} 12/2/2005
This is a really great capture, Sally. Wonderful colours, set again that moody sky. Well done.


Thilo Bayer   {K:50301} 12/11/2005
Hi Sally,

Local camera club sounds great! Hopefully we see more of your works in the future. I like the clarity here, the dramatic sky and the different "shapes" of the ships. This creates a lot of tension.

best wishes,
Thilo


Frank Beer   {K:10112} 5/31/2007
Great, I love your boat pictures, Sally.
Could be an object for a painting artist :)
All the best, Frank
