Ferry toward the danish shore Photo

Photographer’s Note

I was on my way to sweden waiting for the approaching ferry. The light was beatiful, very scandinavian, so I fired a single hot (at the risk of missing my bus!).

Rotation, levels and cropping in PS

I like the way the sunbeams are coming down and the reflection on the water. Nice shot.

Excellent shot for your coming back Miks.

The light rays coming down from the sky and their reflection on the sea gives a bit of mysteriousness and poetry for a subject that usually lacks some...the right upper side flying bird is a very small but not to be neglected addition.

My nitpick is that you should also crop the remaining... thingy (post? flag? buoy?) on the lefter side, though I think you left it in order to keep the integrity of the reflection.

Nice image with the reflections and the light coming through the clouds. Would benefit from running NeatImage or similar to reduce the noise.

Very nice. Lovely sunrays coming through the clouds and yes I like that boat coming straight to off. The composition is quite good. I like the more darker part at the bottom, it compensates for so much light in the sky. The only thing that bothers me a tiny bit is the reflection on the left of the picture like a branch sticking out of the water, it seems to me it could be cloned or simply crop the photo a little on the left.

Modern day Vikings are coming !!

Good use of the 3rds rule, just a small crop to the left is needed, plus clone out the upper right seagull, but the foreground light playing on the waves is very good indeed
Well done for seeing this Mikkel

Beautiful light, so soft almost a painting. I am quite distracted by the thingy on the left though.

Je suis d'accord avec Thien au sujet de l'objet qui dérange un peu à gauche.
There is also a little dust up in the sky in your right.

Miks, I really like the light and colors and almost everything except that relfection or (thingy). I would try to get rid of the jpeg artifacts though.
