I am very proud of this shot which I took back in 2011, compositionally I took 4 subtly different shots of this boat and then selected this shot (no cropping). Recently I had the opportunity to take some shots in to the camera club and receive some critique from fellow members – all were complimentary on the composition and light but one person suggested the sky lacked sufficient contrast to compete with the lovely reflection. Well that was me off in to the archives to pull the RAW file and here we are. Now I think this pops whereas previously it was a nice shot – it is now on sale and getting growing interest – have a lovely week chaps.

I love this type of pictures! Great colors….
Stunning shot Scott, and a great looking boat too.
how about your motor parked here mate:-)
That would be nice, must get to work on an engine.
Extraordinary!!
so generous – thank you
A shot to be deservedly proud of with great composition, colours and mood.
Noeline, excellent thank you so much
It’s a stunner for sure. Glad to hear your camera club is so helpful. I don’t know if I ever told you I am a camera club judge?
I believe you may have mentioned it – I will have to unfollow your blog lol
Good eye to spot and photograph this terrific scene Scott.
Ah cheers – off the beaten track can be rewarding
Majestic
a wonderful thing to say cheers
Crisp, clear and inviting. Lovely photograph…no wonder you are receiving a lot of interest. Reproductions for sale?
Michael you are always complimentary and yes reproductions are on sale Sir
brilliant 🙂
thanks a lot cheers
Very pleasing indeed. I feel I’d like to jump into that little boat and row off. It’s great that you get constructive criticism in the camera club.
agreed this is the best critique I have received by far
Proud on ya! Amazing what a little tweak of color can do. Have yet to figure out what folks think B&W is supposed to do other than bad imitations of Ansel Adams.
Yes it does pop but I do like a moody mono it has to be said and I will occasionally work in mono
Great image Scott and in one of my favourite areas as well. Stunning. MM 🍀
cheers MM it was just a great location with interesting light
It is just so tingling to be in a place when the light is perfect….
You should be. A beautiful composition and the colours are stunningly irresistable. Just perfect!
Leya the colours very wide-ranging and interesting in a subtle way
Another cracking image Scott….and you’re right it pops.
excellent Mark thanks again you are a real stalwart thanks

Sreejith you are a star Sir
It’s so kind of you, Scott. I feel really honoured to get such a great comment from some one, whose work I really admire 🙂
A proud you should be…a great shot (I take it the Camera Club didn’t complain about the colour of the boat!!!!) That is a winner.
ha ha ha always make me smile Mr Oakes
Deserves all the praise it gets Scott. Love all the c’s. Colour, contrast and composition.
