About the Image(s)


Taken at Portland, Maine, September 28, 2018. Wish the sound of the crashing waves could be heard in the photo. Taken with Sony a7ii with Tamron 28-75 mm - F8, 1/80, ISO 100, 28 mm. Minor post-processing - light dehazing applied.

ooh, love the clouds! I like drama and perhaps you could try adding abit more "structure" from nik (plugin to photoshop). I like the rocks in the foreground and pointing in the direction of the house and lighthouse. This photo could look good in black and white too, i believe.   Posted: 10/10/2018 09:42:22
 
Here is a version in B&W. Needs work but has potential. Thanks for suggestion.   Posted: 10/11/2018 20:22:16

Beautiful image! Like Pat said, the rocks direct my eye to the immediate lighthouse and the pattern in the clouds help to redirect me further into the photo to the further structure out on the rocks. Perhaps I'm a bit picky, and I apologize if I'm out of line, but I typically don't like people in landscape shots...typically. This is one of the times I don't like it. Otherwise I enjoy this image...it inspires in me a desire to visit this location myself!   Posted: 10/11/2018 19:11:58
 
Not out of line at all. I don't like people in my landscapes either but when you either skip the gorgeous scene or have people, well, I took the people. 😊   Posted: 10/11/2018 19:52:42

excellent picture, with the waves breaking over the rock and the lighthouse in the background.I've been to Portland, there are many areas you can take pictures from, but you got a great shot.   Posted: 10/14/2018 09:07:20
