Roberto

I thought I was the Vignette King around here, but you are obviously out to steal my crown  ;)

Of the four pictures, I prefer #1 and #4, and probably #1 the best. #4 is fine, but quite conventionally framed, whereas #1 is a more "difficult" composition which asks more of the viewer and I like it all the more for that. The boat shots are OK, but I really don't like modern GRP yachts and so I find the subject puts me off. But you have a good consistent style and mood in all of them, and a clear artistic direction. That is great, and not too common in the work which gets shown here.

You have a good eye for composition and light. Your B&W tonalities are beautiful. I like all of these images, but #1 is special. Good work.

While I agree with the good criticism above, the first thing that comes to my mind when I see those pictures is "whoa, what a vignetting!". Do not get me wrong, I have nothing against vignetting as a tool when properly used, but in my humble opinion you have abused that effect in your photographs, to the point that it grabs all the attention.

Just my two cents.

i think # 1 is special because of the vignette and would be very good as a stand alone print.

Reminds me of the view out of a few portholes in the early morning.

Yes, maybe you are right. Thank you Edu for your opinion.
