Hi Stephen,
That is a pitty that you left just too early. I saw some realy good eclipse photos on TN yesterday and would have liked to witness it myself. Anyway, this is a beautiful photo with a excellent composition. The color of the sun is beautiful and the details and color of the rock and seaguls are excellent. The orange glow on the bottom of the sun is amazing.
TFS,
Niek

Hi Stephen!
Yeah, Cyprus was great place to watch this event. And for holidays, too ;-) I like this nostalgic photo. Big ball of Sun looks great with these two seagulls. I'm started to dreaming about holidays in hot place.

Hello Steve,

It's indeed a pity that you left a little too early to see the eclipse. Would you have known about the eclipse, would you have booked a week later? Anyway, this is great picture and I really, really like it. I drew my immediate attention when I saw the welcome gallery. Well done & TFS!

Regards,
Pieter

Hi Stephan,
Excellent composition on this shot. The long lens has isolated the gulls very well on the rocks. This looks great!

Hi Stephen,

This is a gorgeous photograph...photography at its best!
I'm pretty new to manual phtography. Howard said this is excellent use of f5.6. What was the criteria for chosing it?

Hello Stephen,
This is great! The birds on the rocks look great and the BG is outstanding. The sea and the sun look amazing and it's great that the area around sun isn't burned.
Great picture!
As for the WS, this is probably one of the best pictures of eclipse I saw. The clouds covering the sun look amazing , colours are great too and I have feeling it reminds more a moon from horror movies that sun. Really great shot!
