Re: Red Sky At Night
I think this is great, like the aspect, but the boat is a bit distracting.

Re: Red Sky At Night
Love the colors. For me the strong part of the image is the range of dark blue water to the sunset red reflecting off the cloud, so I wonder if a different crop would do more justice to that aspect. Just a thought

Re: Red Sky At Night
How about cropping the water in front?

Re: Red Sky At Night
Yes that is worth considering. You would lose a bit of the sky reflection but it would tend to concentrate the eye on that lovely coloured sky. Possibly the boat would then appear to be more of a necessary part of the whole scene.
But, in all fairness, it is already a good image so we are really just talking about changing a good photo into an excellent one.

Re: Red Sky At Night
Different aspect. About 2 mins before the first photo. I only had about 5 minutes to get this setup right. Used a 2 stop graduated ND filter. I would have liked to use a ND filter as well to smooth the water out.
