hi Lisa

I want to be the 1st critique here :)

I think this is fantastic with the feel of floating in the clouds, the effect of the long exposure on the flow.

It is extraordinary that you can make a strong subject out of the railings and the side of the platform. Very creative POV.

I am impressed with this one.

Ciao Lisa,
davvero straordinario ed impressionante l'effetto che sei riuscita ad ottenere in questa bellissima immagine.
L'effetto grafico creato dai tubi è stupefacente ed i colori splendidi.
Ti auguro un buon WE.
Un caro abbraccio.

Lisa,

Unusual and eye-catching image. Not everyday we see such a misty sea backdrop combined with the glint of steel. Very effective.

Cheers
Colin

Certainly like the mood Lisa, the black background is rich and the pool mist works a treat here. The yellow metallic contrasts very well, only thing is the horizon is tilted ;-)
Great shot Lisa, TFS
Regards
Jim

Hello Lisa,
The railings make for a splendid graphical image; whilst the slow shutter speed enhances the mood no end. You have an excellent eye for these daring and unusual compositions making fantastic subjects I would never dream of. Very well done. Have a good Sunday.

hi lisa,
There's something very attractive about this shot, the contrast between the foreground and background is amazing, the sharpness of the railing contrasting well with the mist in the bottom.
didier,
sorry for my poor English.

Hi Lisa,
Hey, great work here, the time exposure is brilliantly executed. I love the gold light on the stainless railings, rocks and pool surrounds and that misty look to the water is fantastic. Incredible difference between moods when you look at the comparison between post and workshop, the main post POV is superior to the workshop as well.
One question, why didn't you clone out the distracting piece of white at the bottom right of frame, it could have been so easily done and it spoils an otherwise perfect capture. If you were a Cronulla supporter I'd be giving you a good spanking.
Ooroo.
Pete

Hi Liza
Very attractive shot due to the contrasts still/movement (long exposure time) and the colours (black/lighted), so interesting
Take care
