Bonjour Robert,
Excellent, ce bateau qui émerge du brouillard, la photo est prise au bon moment, alors qu'un peu de brume entoure encore le cargo, mais pas trop.
L'éclairage particulier ajoute à l'atmosphère.
Daniel.

Perfectly timed, and perfect weather for this. Looks like one of those maritime paintings you sometimes see in seaside hotels, great shot.

I like the atmosphere with this monster coming out of the fog. I've tried a little WS.

Bonsoir Robert,
Cette prise de vue est superbe pour plusieurs raisons :
- Qualité de la composition ;
- Qualité de la lumière ;
- Qualité du cadrage ;
- Qualité des couleurs.
Il est bien dommage que la photo publiée ne possède que 51 ko, celui réduit la qualité de l'image (compression trop forte).
Félicitations.
Amitiés.
Philippe

The vessel in the fog and some icefloe... The light is superb.
Thanks for share.

elle est belle cette photo. Une ambiance mystérieuse très bien captée. Philippe a raison, dommage que la qualité souffre de la taille trop petite de l'image.

dominique (11403) 2005-03-30 16:15

Comme les autres j'aime l'ambiance , l'effet brume renforce le coté mysterieux comme un bateau fantome , bien vu .

It looks like you're featured artist today! Good thing, otherwise I would never have seen this marvelous image! Super tones and wonderful composition! Nice work!

A fabulous shot, Robert. This has a really mysterious feeling to it - almost as if the ship is emerging from another world. It's strange how there is dark grey, almost black to the left and slight traces of blue on the right. It's like this is the transition zone.

It is just perfect: perfect timing, perfect framing.
The excellent thing is that the fog is around the boat, but not too much.

I would crop it, so that it gets 3:2, but I would only remove the bottom part. I find that you cropped it too much in your workshop, and that there is not enough water left on the right part of the image.

Bravo for this capture.
