Hobie cats all in a row..

Well composed picture. Plenty of lead in lines - most run right to left which is good as it is not the way western people scan an image - that makes the viewer work harder.

Image could have been improved by waiting until the lady on the person on the left had moved out of the shot.

I love these brillant colors E-A, good capture

Great colors indeed Elisabeth. Lovely composition as well.

Thanks all, it was the colours I was more interested in hearing comments on, as I am experimenting with the Singh-Ray gold 'n' blue filter. It saturates the colours so much, hardly any post processing is necessary, other than usm and maybe a tweak in levels. It's easy to overdo the effect of the filter though. This image was taken at about 1:30pm, and I liked the way the filter changed the hard middle of the day light.

It seems like a very interesting filter Ann,from first look i thought the picture was shot before sunset,until i read your reply of cours.
I take it its a screw on filter then?

btw...beautyfull colours.

Great colours E-A. Thanks for sharing.

The colours leap off the sails out of my screen. Great capture!

Nice colors.

Yep, works for me, love the ordered symmetry in the boats/sails.
I'd consider cloning that building just protruding into the scene (mid-left), it distracts a touch.

Pretty keen picture. The color of the sky sems to be a bit off, but that is just my opinion. Otherwise the colors and composition are striking.

Thanks again everyone - Jeff, I think the idea of the filter is that it makes colours somewhat surreal, it all depends on how much effect you want. Turned slightly more, the sky would be electric blue.

nice shot
