I know you were trying to give some foreground interest or create a leading line, but it doesn't do it for me. The colors are great, yes. But no detail in the included dock makes it just a black patch. Maybe try a flash next time?

But no detail in the included dock makes it just a black patch. Maybe try a flash next time? Great work otherwise though. John I totally agree with you. And yes, I was trying to create a little forground intrest. Although I don't think my on-camera flash will reach that far. The dock is a good 1.5 floors below and 40 yards from where I was standing. Would a shoe flash like the 430ex produce better results? Canon 30D :: Canon EF 17-40mm f/4 L :: Canon EF 70 - 200mm f/4 L IS :: Canon 300mm F4 L IS :: Giottos Lava Tripod with Ballhead

I think the dock kind of draws attention away from the mountains. In the second shot try cropping out a quarter of the bottom, from the the bottom of the dock down that way it is still in the shot (like you want I guess) but so it isn't as overpoweringly pressent Chris

Dec 03, 2007 16:32 | #13 Here is the cropped version without the black mass that was the dock. Although I do miss the open expanse of water in front of the mountains. I am also working on a good crop for the second image.  Canon 30D :: Canon EF 17-40mm f/4 L :: Canon EF 70 - 200mm f/4 L IS :: Canon 300mm F4 L IS :: Giottos Lava Tripod with Ballhead
