Hi Emma,
I don't mind the human made structures in this photo at all. They are so small that they really don't create a different view. I love the golden tone in this photo a lot. It is always a bit of a surprise to me how the camera reacts to shooting into the sun. The texture in the clouds is absolutely wonderful and all the different layers also add a great sence of depth. The jagged coastline and the hills all add to a wonderful natural scenery.
TFS,
Niek

P.S. I hope you are feeling OK

Hi Emma

Hope you are feeling somwhat better.

A lovely, evocative shot. I have visited Orkney once and this area at about the same time of day - the light was similar. Anyway great composition.

This is wonderful Emma. Color??????? Wow, that is interesting. I think the central building (?) makes a great focal point set off by that great section of bright water. There is a wonderful feel to this image.

hello Emma,
It is beautiful, the way light is reflected off the water!
The shimmering sea under the dramatic sky is a wonderful view!

Hi Emma,
You've captured a definite mood in this scene which I'm sure reflects the tranquil character of the place.
I bet it can get windy there though.
The notes about the WW11 structures are interesting too.
Beautiful image.
Its hard to believe you've been on TN for over two years now. I don't know how I've moissed so many of your wonderful images.
Keep up the good work.
Cheers,Steve

Hi Emma.
Your play with lights has ended with superb picture. I also like your very interesting and useful note. Your technique is really great. Despite the dark key of the execution details of the image are excellent. Light tones are rich and wonderful as well as the whole scenery. Bravo and TFS.

Hi Emma.
Good thing you did stop. You caught the light just perfectly. Such a wonderful and dramatic sky. Great light and pastel colours. Like a painting. Very beautiful. Well done.
Best regards, Steve.

Hi Emma!

To be at the right moment at the reight place: this is one of the messages I get through your wonderful mood-picture and the well accompanying notes. Half of a good picture is made when this becomes true. The other half is - from my point of view - not the technical aspect as many would suggest - but the emotions a picture can awake. Yours does this! The technical aspect is like orthography: it's not important, but one has to know it!

Kind regards

Markus

Hi Emma, I love dark brooding skies like this. There is so much depth in this sky with the bonus of the solar illumination coming through. I also like the tone, a great mood capture. Well done.
