It is a nice picture of this old boat which certainly had better times in the past. The light is excellent and the sunset colours superb.

Superbe composition où tu as magnifiquement travaillé avec la lumière et les reflets. Minimeeting mais avec des photographes de très grande qualité, ce qui nous promet certainement de nombreuses superbes images!
Amicalement

Beautiful light on this decaying boat. Reflection is excellent. Very artistic composition.

PixelTerror (86853) 2008-06-15 4:05

Hi Captain,
Ah the magical attraction of TE meetings strikes again, hope you had great fun over there, The soft light rendering on the rusted structures doubled by the reflection is very nice, I find the sky less attractive, pola wide angle effect too present and yes it's time for some sensor cleaning !
Have a nice sunday JY

leo61 (43772) 2008-06-15 4:15

Hi Tan!
Excellent composition with this angle and the position of the boat.Great depth,too and nice strong colors.I like this one much more than Peter`s oversaturated version.
Regards,leo

ChrisJ (70443) 2008-06-15 6:42

Hi Tan

Wonderful reflections in the tranquil fg water, with good placement of the boat offcenter at right. Good sharpness & color. Tfs!

Hi Tam... What a poetic photo with a fantastic light in what it looks to be a wonderful location. Not one of the good landscapes, but also full of interest. Take care.

merhaba tan abi

yalnızlığa demir atmış bir gemi ve onu yalnız bırakmak istemeyen suda ki yansıması. su ona sırtını dönmüş belkide ...

Hi Tan,
Very photogenic ship, I remember Peter's version of this. Great light and optimal angle I think. I'd be tempted to zoom closer and sacrifice lower part of the reflection.

a little sad to see this boat... but your compo is very well done, colors are so nice, space is wide around the boat.
Bravo!

Hi Tan,
Long time no see.. ;o)
Looks like you're the first to post a picture from this meeting, and so far no one else seems to be following your tracks! Lovely POV and a beautiful light too.I like the way you've framed it with water both in front and behind.
Have a nice day.
Bibi

Elinize saglik,

albertz (2310) 2008-06-17 1:08

The color of the rust from the ship and the play of light from the slightly rippled water to get a reflection catches my attention. your composition is great too. Superb shot.

claire526 (1261) 2008-06-17 10:33

Hi Tan,
Great find. I love the composition and your low POV. Good colors and saturation. TFS

Hi Tan,
I guess I won't be posting my version of Point Reyes wreck taken the following day when the tide was too low to give your great reflection. The off-center POV is very effective as well and I like the extra poloarization to the right.

Sorry I was late and missed meeting you; I was really looking forward to seeing you in action. Your results are so impressive I was hoping something would rub off on me. I love the WS you posted of Peter dancing on the truck as well.

HLj, Pat

pboehringer (770) 2008-06-23 16:37

Tan,
this is almost a classic for anyone that gets to Point Reyes/ Inverness with photographic aspirations. Your wide angle with the late sun providing the great reflections on the slight rippled water gives a nice image. Personally I would have preferred a little more light on the front of the boat to show the name of it 'Point Reyes' better.
The rest regarding the strong
uneaqual polarizing effect and the dust were already discussed and do not need to be pointed out again.
Meeting next year might be in Yoshua Tree or Anza Borrego N.P. This time somewhere during Spring. Would be nice to see you then again.
Peter

batalay (21205) 2008-06-23 22:06

Hello Tan,

I like the image of the rusty scupper. The composition, light management and the resolution are all first rate. Initially, I thought the image might have been produced in Inverness, Scotland, rather than in California.

Warm regards,

Bulent

Estelle (2319) 2008-06-25 14:38

Hello Tan,
Lovely reflection of the boat and nice POV.
Personnally, I would have left some extra space over the boat, but that a matter of personal taste.
Well done!
Estelle

jwmunro (6255) 2008-06-25 18:03

Hello Tan -

This is very nice with a great reflection. It is obvious you used a polarizer on this image as only the right third seems to be affected. I think it stands out a bit too much, but not enough to trash the image. If you crop this image to a square format the polarizer would not be so noticeable. Just my 2-cents.

Thank you for sharing. It was nice meeting you that afternoon.

John

Didi (36452) 2008-06-29 8:45

Salam Tan
A very interestin frame of the wreck in a strong point.
Very intersting also your low position who gives a nice depht by the foreground.
I appreciate also the lights quality.
Cheers.

Hey Tan,

Very good colors and composition. The use of the wide lens is great here too.

Very well done,

Itamar

Waylim (11157) 2008-08-05 9:02

I try to come here when I was last in San Francisco, didn't make it and ended up in Marine headland which turn out great as well. But I will surely come here next time I'm in the area. This is a great image, I love most everything about it, Really good composition. The only minor thing for me is that it was cropped just a little bit too tight up top, I know you also try to include the reflection which is important too for the composition. It' a tough call. Perhap zoom out or step back a couple of feet if possible. Anyway, I'm just being picky on you. Thanks Tan

Hi Tan,

I visited your gallery, almost of your pictures reflects the peace of the world, I really love your pics. I have the impression of "suspended time" when I see your pictures.

Very good exposure and well balanced colors....
Cheers,

Raphael

Bruno40 (6442) 2008-11-14 17:24

Hi Tan,
I am back and glad to see your gallery again. This one stands out with the wreck very well placed in the frame, and that also was done during a TE meeting.
Good work
cheers
