Hi All

Not the sky I was hoping for, but when a gray sky is all ya got to work with it's either take the shot or not.

What do you think?

Thanks for looking
C&C welcome.

SS 1/50, Aper f13, ISO 100, FL...70mm

I love the rich contrast of the grassy foreground and the icebergs. The color is amazing. Did you use PP?

Very strong contrast, sky or not, this is very enjoyable! Framing it?

Heck with the sky, this is still a great shot. Love the colors but maybe just a smidge over-saturated but maybe not...I kind of like the contrast very attractive. ...... oh no! I feel I'm being pulled into the saturation abyss........

Great Shot!

I think the sky actually helps the icebergs.

AT first I was going to say crop it, but he contrast with the land really gives it perspective

Your iceberg shot's never siece to amaze me mate :)

I would love to get some scale in them. If only there was a boat out there by them but I suppose that would be rather dangerous and even worse may even culminate into a Celine Dion song!


Technical perfection is only ever important if it improves the asthetic. It is not the precursor to beauty. Not in art..not in music and not in photography!
