Sunset in Boracay (Philippines)

[wasabi8888]

Hi all

Like Shadow, I would like to post some pics up for comments. I also newbie at this but would like to learn. Sunset pictures but it was a cloudy day

I have posted my pics up in picasa but not sure whether I am allowed to paste the link here. Can someone advise?

Here are the pics

Wah!!!! nice... However, horizon tilted. Should straighten it. For the first picture, show more sky, less sea, crop with bias to right side.

Cheers,

p.s. you can link any picture from any webhost into AQ. No issues at all

I like how the silhouette of the net leads the eye across the photo in #02. If it had the colours of #01 or #03 it will be even better.

I feel that #01 can photoshop it for more drama in colour. The wave is a bit distracting cos it created a line across the picture. In general, diagonal lines are more powerful than horizontal lines.

Overall is good. At least there is some attempt in composition. Look forward to see more of this series.

Nice series. I think overall I like #3 better because of the non-horizontal shore.

#1 has too much horizontal lines which is like ck says a bit distracting. Plus, there's almost equal sky and sea space so the focus is not there.

#2 would be better if the background is brighter so the silhouette stands out better.

But then again, what do I know, I'm also a newbie.

Jeffery,
Nice shooting. The sunset is so beautiful and relaxing, wish I was there.
See you sunday.

Can you explain "crop with bias to right side."? Does that mean crop away the right or crop more of the left?

Not sure how to photoshop with more drama in color. I tried to photoshop with filters but did not turn out well? Any other tools I should consider? I also do not know whether I can photoshop away the wave lines.

All in all, thanks for the compliments. Did not expect it at all...


I have attached a link for some of the better pics (I think)
