Good Morning Chennai..., a photo from Tamil Nadu, South

Photographer's Note

Good Morning Chennai...

Smile at the sky
It’s so pretty
It sets me free
When I’m sad
I go outside
When I’m happy
I go outside
A smile emerges on my face
So far and wide
Just like the sky
The smiling sky whom I smile back to
Smile at the sky

Are you happy?
You’re already outside and smiling
Are you sad?
Get your Face outside and show the sky a smile
Smile at the sky
Smile at the sky
And give him a grin or two
Remember he loves you too
Smile at the sky
Smile at the sky

-pierre singla

I took this image on Morning on Marina Beach, Chennai.

Wonderful capture of that sky and nice symmetric composition of the boats.

Looks like you did some photoshop, not? The colours seem almost unreal and there is a small white border (almost a glow) around the boats.

Perfect composition and great POV. Colours are great, so your picture note.

colors and POV are beautifull

brandstaetter (15915) 2007-12-13 15:36

Hi senthil,

just perfect, the circle of clouds is repeated by the outlines of the boats and the blue bottoms of the boats are repeated in the colours of the sky.
Cheers from Austria, Chris

the low angle words very well here
good colours and an impressive sky

Dyerco (10185) 2007-12-13 22:51

A wonderful breaking sky. The low POV allows the boats to curve up more and frame the sky.

everlasting (19312) 2007-12-13 22:53

Although the sky looks a little over PPed the composition is very clever. Wonderful POV to create this symmetrical image and the smiling boats

japiey (10163) 2007-12-14 0:36

Hi Brother,

i miss my days
watching that boats
in the shore...
alone and drifted away...
in the fierce clouds..
waiting the sun to shine on me...
and still am waiting that day...

A journey to life....to self...

oochappan (4880) 2007-12-20 5:05

Impressive wide distortion with deep coloring in harmony bring the red of the boats nicely out, an inspiration for a timeless painting.

JCG (35153) 2007-12-20 13:22

Hi Senthil,

An impressive sky which give all environment to the image and I like much framing on these two coloured boats. A very beautiful unit, cheer.

Hi Senthil,
this is perhaps a demo for the beginners who use wide angle lens!
Nice composition with nice color saturation.

pablominto (53746) 2007-12-26 23:18

Hello Senthil,
This is an interesting composition, where you use the two boats as framing for the play of light in the sky!
Near perfect symmetry and quite a surprising image in fact!
Greetings,

Hu Senthil!
2 more point for reaching the "100".the image is worth it.
Your well choosen low POV gives a nice üperspective and you did well with it,to have this amount of unique sky above the boats.Strange cloudformations and magic light.

Hello Senthil,

What are this specially colours, this is maybe alone in India to see!
You took very low this picture and placing the two both excellent in this image.
Therefor we get a great depth between the boats, very well done. Thanks for sharing.

Best regards,

Bonjour,
une photo réussie en de nombreux points de vue; artistiquement avec le cadrge symétrique et le POV assez bas et techniquement avec les couleurs parfaites et des lumières difficiles bien gérées.
Un magnifique ciel inquiétant.
Best regards.
Daniel.

Longroute (19600) 2008-06-28 1:13

Hey Sentil,

I really like this one!
It's a gorgious composition. lovely symmetry with the two twin boats and very beautiful sky.
My best compliments,
Donato

woozbman (368) 2008-06-28 9:38

Hi Senthil,

A dramatic shot, I would say. The sky is very dramatic, and the low POV and wide angle are put to good use in capturing the symmetry of the boats. The halos around the boat are a bit distracting; I take it the boats were a bit dark in the original photo? Nonetheless, still a fine photograph.

Best regards,
Lamberto

lucasgalodoido (27532) 2008-07-01 16:04

Hello Senthil
Very powerful gallery you have on TE, very impressive I must say. The perspective is great with the boats mirroring each other very well. Moody clouds with briliant colours finish this scene very well. Excellent work Senthil.

Hello Senthil,

The symmetric perspective allows the old rowboats to serve as "book ends," framing the extraordinary sky. This is remarkable image!

Warm regards,

Bulent

ajayrawat (676) 2009-05-17 10:42

Great POV with lovely sky... wait... I can see some marks of touch ups. Well if its till adjusting the levels than its really a good photo but if you have laced a different sky than I would say you are a good visualizer and wizard of PP, however need to be little finer with "feather selection".

kiks (12805) 2011-05-22 10:41

everithing is perfect here; the perspective the composition the exposure. Impressive image.
