About Sorry I had been a bit occupied and could not make any posts in the past couple of days. Will pickup on the comments today.

Here is another photo of a dhoni. It shows the boat better, but I am not too sure about the composition.

Let me know your thoughts. Thanks for all your comments.

Best Regards,
Ahmed

Very nice image. Somebody is blessed with some great water. I might would try cropping just a bit from the top. Still, a very nice image. Thanks for sharing.

The blueish - almost monochrom - composition, with the few other colors that look like small brush strokes in an otherwise blue-fresh environment, and the boat that cuts the horizon at about 1/3 of the image vertically, is indeed very nice, Ahmed! Only one small problem I see, namely the rope from the top of the mast going behind the man in red pants disapperas because of overexposure. I guess that without this overexposure the image would lose its characteristic brightness, though, that makes the strong light very feelable.

The image does say very much in its very strong simplicity that mainly emerges from the quite uniform background and the uniform light.

Best wishes,

Nick

Thanks so much Kasia. I don't use a filter, but played with with it in photoshop.

Do you have a filter on the camera, or use one in photoshop - cause the blue shades are just amazing - you would expect the red of the pants to stand out a bit more, but it doesn't - it's just blue!

Great shot.

I think Chris might be right on this one Ahmed. A landscape rather than portrait style would have worked better for the boat without disrupting the glorious 'blue' theme you have created here. Having said that, my friend, I still love the shot and I am still deeply envious of all this lovely blue you keep finding...Can i trade some grey with you??? Best wishes dear friend..Ray

Hi Ahmed,
I like this! I would like to see it wider so the back of the boat isn't cropped off. Maybe a bit less sky on top? It's such a pretty shot with those intense blues.

Hello Ahmed

As always, stunning colours in your scene. I too, would have liked to see this one in landscape format. The boat should definitely have more space on either side.

The scene is marvellous all the same. The Dhoni has so much character. I particularly like the fact that the mast is the same colour as the water!

Great work.
Cheers
Rina

This is a stunning image Ahmed. The blues are wonderful. Think I would have preferred to ahve seen it in landscape orientation though to further compliment the length of the boat. It's a little cropped a the stern and it's such a unqiue shaped tiller that I'd like to see it in it entirety. Beautiful. I really enjoy these boat images. Cheers - Ann :)

another great "blue" pic. The only critic I have is that you crop the boat a little bit, but it still a great pic.

Zeev Scharf   {K:25603} 11/5/2005
Anothe beautiful shot dear Ahmed,those colors are magnificent,and a great view of this nice boat
I also think that the landscape format will suit better here,or to cropp a little of the upper sky
Many many thanks for all your so nice comments
Best regards

Another colourful shot from the Maldives, Ahmed.
I'm wondering if this might have been better taken in landscape format? That way would have given more room to the boat and less to the empty sky.
Best regards, Chris
