Comment You better ~~fix~~ remove the CAs (some are look like halos) around the trees if you can. --Laitche (talk) 21:19, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral Yes, this color of the ocean is bewitching, enchanting, fascinating and if this color is only this moment like blue hour or dusk or something, it's amazing but seems always this color and if without the color, the composition is ordinary and the quality is not good as others say so I don't think this shot is outstanding. Or am I wrong? only this moment? --Laitche (talk) 10:52, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
- Additional comment: I am not negative for this photo, I want something special at least one plus the color. --Laitche (talk) 12:43, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Laitche, The Photographer, Code and others. Thanks for your reviews! I agree with the comments that if you zoom in on the photo to inspect the pixel quality it is not something that blows your mind. There was a very big contrast in the scene, and to get a wide enough field of view I had to use my crappiest lens, which is the Canon EF-S 18-55 mm kit lens. Thanks to Lightroom it was possible for me to make it into something useful, the default jpg generated by the camera looked less than promising. I have corrected for CA already in LR, but I do agree with Laitche that there are some halos left. It is not something I have skill to further repair, I am afraid. Also, regarding the composition, which Laitche points out: I have several shots from the place and have experimented with many different crops. I have tried to find ones, where there are not so many trees at inclined angles intersecting the sides, but impossible due to the nature of the gorge and the half-tilted trees. The greatest asset is the mood and unusual backgroound light and the photo is best seen in its entirety I think, where I do think the composition is rather appealing. Laitche questions if the view is unusual. I would say it is not particularly unusual at this site, which is one of the most astonishing natural spots in my small home country. I think that at most times of the year it will be possible to find spots with an unusual atmosphere and light. Perhaps not exactly like this, but featurable in some sense if you have a little patience and seek it. This aerial photo of the area gives a good impression of how the milky sea water looks like on a sunny day. For these photos I was just lucky to pass by when the light was good over the sea with shade over the gorge and notice a possible good framing with a 'fake' magic sky by looking down steeply. -- Slaunger (talk) 20:37, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Support I wonder if a 2:1 crop (removing the bottom) would be stronger. -- Colin (talk) 22:17, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
