What a beautiful subject
:iconqworg:
Thanks. Any comments about the artistic merit of the photo? I'd like to improve.
:iconpictureandwordartist:
Nice.. I would suggest you either Go back retake the photo and zoom in closer in order to get the frameing in closer (the two pole things) and to make the center of interest more in focus/closer or you could maybe crop it in to make it fit a little better in the picture. I would also say to adjust the levels/color in order to bring out the orange of the COI more. I would also suggest takening out that little rod in the water thats to the far right. I don't know if this would look good or not but you could try to maybe blur or make the buildings/docks and stuff behind the gate a little less in focus that would keep your eyes on the COI. If you were to be able to retake this shot you could add DOF (depth of field) by useing a lower f/stop like f/2.5 or something so that the buildings and stuff aren't as in focus and just the gate is keeping your eyes there.. Otherwise nice shot!! ^.^

I'll try messing with it a little to see if I can make those changes happen. As for retaking it, I can't as I'm back in America... unless of course you're buying plane tickets? =D

Sounds like a plan! =)
:iconsilentdark:
Whoa. I love the bright bright red against the dull blues of the sky/mountains/water. I think the only thing I can really pick on here is the tree in the top right. Other than that, great image!
:iconqworg:
Ah, yes. I see now. I could crop that right out but I don't know if it will mess with the balance. Hrm. Back to the photoroom! =)

Thank you for your comment! :thanks:
