Hello Wilson,
Cheer, it was necessary to notice this perfect parallelism between the position of the bridge of the boat and the bridge. A very original and very symmetrical image. Cheer.
Have a nice day

Hi Wilson,
Superb use of the fence of the bridge for a very nice and original frame. The inclusion of the lifebuoys on both sides is fantastic too. In the background we see a very beautiful view along the river towards the boats and bridge and surrounded by impressively high cliffs. Very well captured and thanks for sharing!
Regards,
Lars

Excellent framing of the bridge with the framework of the boat you were on. The symmetry with the life-belts on either side works very well. There's a few halos left from your PP (like my giraffe) but I imagine this was difficult to do and can be forgiven. Well done

Bonjour Wilson,
Une recherche originale et très graphique pour cette composition en navigant sur le Yangtzé.
La gestion de la lumière est toutefois réussie malgré l'absence du soleil qui aurait certainement apporté un plus à ce beau décor!

le pont est parfaitement cadré avec cette barrière du bâteau, superbe, avec les 2 courbe de chaque côté des bouées, les bâteaux en fonds, une très belle recherche, superbe.

Hello Wilson,
nice and clever your idea to shot through the rail of the boat the shape of the bridge in the far end.The symmetrical foreground with the half two life-buoys looks nice to me.The colours and the light as the usual in China.Well done.

Hi Wilson,

A beautiful artistic eye, I like much the originality from the point of view. The buoys give a good symmetry to the image. A photograph with the multiple sights. Interesting vision Wilson, cheer.

With all my friendships and a very good evening,

Hi Wilson,
I have stated many times before that you have a flair for excellent compositions and you capture such unusual images that even experienced photographers overlook. The composition is simply outstanding! If you were so inclined, you would make a great stained glass designer with your outstanding visual skills. I am impressed!

Bonjour Wilson,
le cadrage et le POV sont ici les points forts de la photo.
Des lumières un peu brumeuses, difficiles à maitriser dirait-on.
C'est original.
Un peu de géométrie dans un paysage fantastique.

Hi Murray,

You had a great trip in China. I like the view through the hole in the ramp leading our eyes towards the other boat, the bridge and the mountains. The cliffs on each side of the river are a natural frame to the photo. Well done, have a nice day.

Hi Wilson,
Excellent depth with this straight view up the narrow river valley that is wonderfully framed by the sheer green rock face on each side. The railing on the bow of the tour boat paralles the distant bridge. Very unique composition.

Hi Wilson,
Good idea of POV through the railings and bridge in the deep to give graphism and depth to the scene making the viewer forget about the overcast sky and unfriendly light... Nice symmetric framing
Friendly regards

Hello Wilson -

This is an excellent composition! It starts with the precise symmetry of the FG object and is carried into the BG with the canyon walls linked with the bridge. Further symmetry is carried into the BG with the two boats on the river. This is very impressive and insightful. Well done!

There are some post processing artifacts that are really noticeable along the FG railing that kind of diminish the overall affect of the image. This is such a good composition that I would rework the image and try to avoid the artifacts.

Thank you for sharing.

John

Hi Wilson,

What a splendid idea to take a shot through the fence. The overall sharpness is really impressive and the fence works very well as a lead-in to the boat. Thanks for sharing this exiting picture and have nice weekend!

• [2008-04-05 5:15]

Hi, Wilson. an original framing with the boat and the bridge well palced inside the wrought iron frame. The two life buoys on either side of the frame make for a symmetrical composition. I think the light is not that good but I suppose you had some problem dealing with the backlight.

Hi Wilson,

Original framing ot your photo, from the boat you were. I also have photos of this bridge at the entrance to Lesser Gorges . I like the symmetry here very much. And this nice little Chinese style ship. On ours, there were only Chinese, and the guide was talking continuosly. We had a great fun! Thanks for sharing

Hi, Wilson,
there are so many wonderful lines and shapes in this shot. The straight lines of the metal work, curved ones of the bouys, diagonals of the mountains. You chose an excellent view and the shot through the fence is brilliant. I like the off centered boat seen between the railings and even in difficult lighting conditions, you did a great job! This is excellent! Many thanks and warmest regards,
Shelly

Hello Wilson,

You have managed to frame the trailing boat and even the bridge very nicely; moreover, the steep shores provide a symmetric format that is frequently preferred in China. Well done, Wilson.

Warm regards,

Wilson,
the composition is perfect and most effective, but your PP is to obvious and distractive. You should do the same with several layer techniques and would end up with this image a million times better.

Olá Wislon, your pictures from China and this in particulary, brings to my mind so many good memories...Very original framing, composed with precision. I like the symetric FG. The two boats and the bridge seen in the distance sure are crucial elements for the depth of this view. Congrats.
Best regards,
