Boat and Kites

HippingHippo · 17th January 2005

Sharing another 2 photos of my short trip to WCP...

I cheated in this pic. I copied the sun from my other pic on the other thread

Was too engrossed shooting the other composition and by the time I saw this composition, the sun was almost gone

Going back another time to retake this composition.

Maybe I should have zoomed in on the kites in this pic

The first pic feels pretty tight at the left corner.. and the background doesn't really complement the boats with all the chimmey and stuff. Yeah, I was almost duped by the beautiful sun! Hehe.

2nd picture lacks impact. Both pictures looks a bit under too.

1st Pic...Nice attempt to add in the sun. However, if you noticed that your focus is actually on the boat and that the background is somehow out of foucs, you might want to try blurring the sun to blend into the image.

2nd pic - Nice clouds. Maybe you can try to go into the tree area and use the leaves to create a frame for the kites instead. Another view point.
As I imagine, the leaves will be in siluohette framing the kites.
