A couple shots from last weekend. Not sure why they are different sizes. I have not mastered uploading on here yet. They are both about 130kb and 72dpi.

Both excellent, but my favorite is #2. KUDOS.


Have plenty of Canons, enough ammo, enough to blow 'em to "L". Now, I just have to learn to aim.

The first is a little too dark for my tastes; but I quite like that second one!

The first one may be a little dark , but let me be the first to tell you, it captured my attention and made my mind start to wander into the frame and that is what a good photograph is all about. Thanks for sharing and inspiring!

I like them both!
Actually, I prefer the first one really, it is more 'my style', I guess is why, I like contrasty things.

By the way, both need the horizon leveled, and the horizon is also 'too vertically in the middle' too much, aside from that, I think that you did really well, I think that you could hang 'em both.

Thanks for the feedback. You are right on the first one with the horizon, it's a little off. The second one is level, but it's deceiving. What looks like the horizon tilted on the right, is actually a land mass (Canada) rising above the water.

I'll have to take your word on that, but I still see it as not level, starting from the sun to the right it's even tilted there. :o:lol:

Really, I PROMISE I'm not being one of those people, it's just it appears to be that way 'for sure' in what I see! :grin:
(I tried and tried to make this sound as though I am not being a jerk about this, or adamant, I mean this is the best way possible, that's all)
Whatever the deal, they are both good looking shots!
