Big Ship, Small Ship Photo

Photographer’s Note

I saw some small sailboats sailing around the area where this large ship was moored. After waiting a while, I was able to isolate this one sailboat against its large counterpart.

The contrasting sizes is absolutely astounding. It's great how the grey background the ship creates against the white sailboat allows one to clearly make out its' outline. I would crop out a tiny amount from the far right to get rid of the dark spots/fringing.

Very nice playing of contrast, big vs small, dull gray vs bright white, anchored ship vs free sailing boat.
For my taste, I would crop some of the water at the bottom though.

Any one of these two ships by itself would just be an ordinary picture, but combining them together makes the picture extraordinary.
Nicely done!
I like it.
