Hi Jeppe
I like very much it.
This is the answer for le question : Is a tanker beautifull.
The sun is a little bit burned.
Regards
JP

Hi Jeppe, I agree with Fayeulle, also a tanker can be beautiful or better: the composition you made with it, great shot!

sam224 (5851) 2005-07-27 3:42

Excellent shot of this magnificent sunset. Very nice handling of the light. Good shades of colour on the sea and neat silhouette of the boat. Well done!

Hej Jeppe,
Another beautiful shot with those wonderful warm colours. The huge sun and the broad reflection in the sea is great as well as the silhouette of the tanker in front.
Very well done!
Mange hilsner,

hi jeppe, first off i think i prefer this one to the one on trek lens, the reflections in the water look more real, and i think its a nicer shot this one, well composed and great colours, good shooting, what was your shutter speed on this one?> thanks for sharing

Steft (5962) 2005-07-27 6:19

Hej Jeppe,
Meget flot billede! But I see you have rotated the photo a bit and forgot to crop a bit more of the right, just a tiny detail :P

Very nice warm colours and atmosphere. Beautiful reflection on the water. The ship is a nice add, and we can see it very well.

Thanks for sharing!
Stef

Hi Jeppe.
Fantastic contraposition (does this word exist in english?) with the sun and the tanker.
Really nice. Well done.

weswang (18223) 2005-07-27 10:45

Hi Jeppe, A well taken sunset picture with beautiful color, reflections. I like your off the center composition and the way the fire ball to be dropped to the top of the ship feeling in this picture. An excellent photo. Well done.

jhm (85052) 2005-07-27 12:09

Hi Jeppe,
Congratulations for this wonderful image, the sun beam in water as reflection, the wrinkles its great because light playing, the sun together with the dark silhouette of the boat make of this picture extraordinarily.
Best regards,
John.

A beautiful one, Jeppe. The tanker was really well included and adds a lot to the scene, in which the degradation of intense orange tones is just amazing. A well included reflection on the rippled surface of the sea. Indeed Manny must have felt quite at home in this splendid sunset setting.

singuanti (15240) 2005-07-27 23:06

Hi Jeppe, wow you really are the sunset master! You must have been giddy watching this scene before you. Congrats on no lens flare which would have been a major bummer with this caliber of sunset. I posted a sunset shot but it fails miserably to compare to this! Very nice one Jeppe!!!

PixelTerror (88585) 2005-07-28 3:58

Hej Jeppe,
Wow I guess Manny was not disappointed by this Danish Boracay like sunset ;-)
Superb sunset and the diffusion of the sunset colors on all the picture makes the photo very warm, the tanker completes well the composition, let's hope it will manage to retain its oil within its body !
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Hi Jeppe! Fabulous sunset you've captured! And the ship is at the right location! Very nice colors and sharpness! Very good work! rgds.

manny (21378) 2005-07-28 6:17

Excellent, as usual. But I am not surprised. Nothing short of brilliant from your sunset shots.

ChrisJ (71614) 2005-07-28 6:23

Hi Jeppe

A superb sunset with excellent, saturated color, good sharpness & wonderful graphism & silhouettes especially the ship on the horizon. The flattened perspective from the zoom lens, works well here. Congratuations!

Fixfocus (9377) 2005-07-28 9:31

Hello Jeppe,
Simple,yet strong composition very well placed into the frame.The strong orange color of the sky looks great.The reflection on the water is a nice detail.It´s not easy to photograph directly into such a bright sun but you did a good job here.
greetings,
hermann

Schultzy (5428) 2005-07-28 12:08

Good evening Jeppe,
That's another great shot. Perfect composition, very sharp ( I like these little details like the smoke coming out the funnel ).
Wonderfull colors, very well done !

capthaddock (28640) 2005-07-29 9:42

Woww - what a big ball of fire, perfectly located in the frame, stunning sunset colours, great work.

sergecross (3438) 2005-07-31 10:02

Jeppe, very nice composition, i like the filtration and the composition between the boat and the sun, that looks great, it's hard to find a picture with has too much elements but with quality and intelligence.
I like the shadows to the boat and a little part to the water.
The sun reflection to the water is very nice, it looks like a road that leaves humans to something.
Very calm place and the poetic scene with that saturated colors are very nice, the circular sun is fine.
The little birds and the sky color are very good.
The picture was 50/50 between the water and the sky, but i like it, because the other elemnts : the sun, the boat, the birds fixed all that view.
Continue posting your picture, i like your themes and all you pictures.
Thanks
Sergio Cross

Hi Jeppe
I lost some of your pictures.
This one is very interesting with the sun exactly on the top of the boat.
Fantastic colors.
Well done
Bertrand

jrj (34791) 2005-08-30 13:38

I looked to the two photos Jeppe and in this case I think this one is the best. Simple, effectful, well disposed compo. Very good.
------------------------------------------
Well, I never met with Manny, very sad particulary as I later was known to the fact that he had an overnight stay only some 30 minutes from my place up in th mouintains.
That's what happen, good to see that you had a fine time up in Skagen then .-)

Dari (24) 2006-06-03 4:08

Good morning, Jeppe. Amazing photo. Glitering water and this huge burning sun, so wide and clear path. Romantic, poetic composition. But ooops you forgot to crop right stripe....
