    Venice Seascape

    First post on this forum, and sort of a test to see how it works, if the avatar works, etc.

    I recently re-edited an old jpeg from my P&S days and it seemed like a good candidate for starters. C&C welcome.

    Thanks

    Re: Venice Seascape

    i can't believe this one didn't get a comment yet. this is probably one of the best ones i seen from that side of venice. i've seen a lot of shots looking back at the square, this one is well composed, nicely exposed, nice detail in the sky & water, nice and sharp. well done.

    Re: Venice Seascape

    Welcome to the forums, LenDog. I like your shot and think that the colors and boats work well. It's always a challenge to get a good shot of boats, at least here in the USA (Europe just seems more photographic, for whatever reason), but this one is nice.

    For a small suggestion, I think I would either crop a little off the top, or the bottom. Why? Well, maybe because the horizon is too close to the center of the image, which sort of splits it in two pieces. Cropping some off the top would move the horizon higher in the (remaining) image.

    To me the horizon is in the upper third. I think it is fine as is.
