On a boat, wind in ones hair, a sunny day, what more could one ask for. Nice image.

Thanks Paul,

Hi Ahmet,

I think the composition works and that's a good exposure, really the only issue I have is that there's some lateral Chromatic Aberration* (CA) showing along the bottom edge of frame.

* this is the red/green edges where something bright is alongside something that's dark

CA is always worst furthest from centre of lens.

I'm not sure if you shot RAW, or even if the SX1 can, but if you have say Photoshop, it is correctable.

HTH, Dave

The boat to Lesbos?

The title and content make it more ways to interpret.

Hi Dave,
Thank you very much for your comment. First I didn't understand what you mean with Chromatic Aberration then I watched a video about it in Youtube. And then I zoomed in my photo and saw the red and green edges. Unfortunately my canon SX1 does not have RAW shooting. I think it is hard to correct the Chromatic Aberration in JPEG shooting.

I think it is hard to correct the Chromatic Aberration in JPEG shooting.

I believe it should still technically be possible, although it might leave artefacts (because starting from jpg), which may render it practically not worth doing.

If you have Photoshop CC, or some other versions, you should be able to configure it to open even a jpg in Adobe Camera RAW, which should allow it to be corrected. I'm not sure if it can be done in Photoshop itself, or in any other image editor.


An alternative approach is to manually brush desaturate just those edges by zooming in to 100% or more.

If nothing else, it would allow you to learn a new technique

HTH, Dave

Hi George,
Actually when I saw '' The boat to Lesvos'', I was surprised because the blonde woman, who is our frend, is from Lesvos. But this trip was from Europe part of Turkey to Asian part in the Dardanelles strait.

I'll not tell you how to pp your images. I'm pretty sure Dave and others can do that much better as me.
The relation between title and content of the image made me wonder.
A link to the boat refugees?
Looking up on a Turkish boat for airplanes to fear or welcome?
A movement leaving land behind you?

I think you meant space around you and your friend. I don't know how to express that in English.

But we know now Turkish and Greek people can go together.

Hi again Ahmet,

I managed a fairly decent job removing the CA in ACR as I mentioned above, but I didn't ask you first, so please let me know if you'd rather I remove this image.



Given it was a large original and also I applied a little sharpening (USM 65%, 0.3px, thres. 2), I think it was worth doing and hasn't made jpg artefacts more noticeable, for those that notice CA, that is.

Hope it is helpful, Dave

Hi George,
Actually I didn't think about refugee boats while giving a name to my photo. She is on a boat. You can feel how much she enjoys the wind in her hair and the Sun while looking at her face. On the other hand two women who are wearing scarf are watching her. We can't see their faces but I am sure they are admiring her. Maybe they are watching her with a jealousy of her self confidence.

No worries, this was useful to me too because I have learnt that it can be dealt with, even if the capture was jpg.
