Post by: sarrasani on December 06, 2016, 04:28:58 pm: absolutely fascinating and magic. Both of them, but I find wonderful the reflection of the mountain.
Robust composition and pleasurable tones and colours. Weakness....I don't know.....maybe tone/colour transitions in
the skies coud be more subtle.
all the best,

Post by: Bob_B on December 06, 2016, 06:13:41 pm: Yes to both, but I really enjoy the pastel hues in the second one. If all winter days looked like that!

Post by: francois on December 07, 2016, 04:27:48 am: I have to agree with previous comments… The light and colors are superb in photo #2 but framing and subject choice of #1 are outstanding.
Title: Re: Cold waters
Post by: Paulo Bizarro on December 07, 2016, 04:38:41 am: Both very good. I really like that in #1 the shape of the icy shore sort of mirrors the top of the mountain.

Yes, that was a special day. I may post a couple more. I'm currently at 68° N and the sun does not clear the horizon. This means we can get several hours of sunrise and sunset light.

Many thanks for the comments.

Post by: graeme on December 08, 2016, 07:00:17 am: They're both lovely. I like the restricted range of colours. The first one is graphically very strong, I bet it would make a great large print.

+1. Excellent. Incredibly abstract rendition of the scene.
