wind in Mallorca Photo

Photographer’s Note

This was our first stop on a bike trip across Mallorca. You can see one of the many beautiful windmills, unfortunately under a dark sky, but for a photogapher not so bad!

Hi Luc!
Good composition with this curve of the street,the streetsigns and this nice windmill out of the center.Great depth with this view down the road ,good sharpness overall and I like how the scene is framed by the grey tones of the street and the sky.
Regards,leo

I don't have a problem with the dark sky, the arms of the windmill stand out against it OK. A brighter sky could easily have been much less interesting. I like the overall composition although I do think there is a bit too much of the road shown in the foreground. I wouldn't remove it completely as it ties in well with the notes, but possibly reduce it by about half.

Hi Luc,
I like your shot, it tells a story of an age not that long ago.
I think the partially overcast sky adds to the shot, it helps to give good definition to the sails on the windmill.
Lovely soft earthy colours and your image is as sharp as.
A fine capture.
Regards
Peter

Luc,
Your composition is great using the road to lead the eye past the main subject. The off center placement of the wind mill works nicely helping to create a sense of direction for the shot. The lighting and colors are fine with nice sharpness and detail.
TFS,
Asa

Hallo Luc!
A truly interesting object - and a beautiful one. I think you gave an a bit too big part to the street here, but besides this - a perfect photo. I also think that this vivid sky adds a lot to the picture - better than a blue one.
Greetings and have a nice sunday!
Frank

Dag Luc,

Iedereen moet toegeven dat al fietsend we meer zien dan met de auto.
Wanneer u dit ziet krijgen uw handen de kriebels om snel een foto te nemen, want als decoratie is het een beauty.
Maar ook technisch komt hij niets te kort, mooir molen tegen een prachtig bewolkte hemel, en Palma schijnt naar links te zijn, mooi gedaan, bedankt.

Groeten uit Vlaanderen,
John.
