Bill from United StatesAnother great monochrome from you, bluechameleon. I need to just stare at your portfolio for hours to grok what you're seeing: because I know that I can learn from you. 14 Apr 2009 5:10am JamesC from portland, United StatesLike how you place the building in the back and contrast the people on the jetty. 14 Apr 2009 5:29am zahai from Berlin, Germanybeautifully done. i love the various appearance of lines in this image...the obvious one in the center, the buildings in the background, the boat driving past, the waves... 14 Apr 2009 5:46am Linerberry from Sumner, Christchurch, New ZealandWhat a beauty....love the waves rolling in! 14 Apr 2009 6:18am wickedful from Vancouver, Canadabeautiful bw!! I love the lines, the contrasts, and the waves! so nice! Which beach is this? english bay or Kits? 14 Apr 2009 6:25am @wickedful: Thank you :) Actually this is showing Ambleside in West Vancouver, but shot from the seawall. Craig from Vacaville, California, United StatesAwesome work here blue! It takes courage to follow your own destiny! Few even recognize it when confronted. 14 Apr 2009 6:31am Mike from Lichfield, United KingdomI like the contrast between the buildings and the people near the beach. Nicely captured and processed. 14 Apr 2009 6:48am Krims@nline.be from Wemmel, BelgiumAwesome b&w, beautifull framed as usual ... well done! 14 Apr 2009 6:48am Pavan Kaul from Mumbai, IndiaA superb composition! I like the light so selectively grazing a few buildings and the waves in the foreground languidly rolling in while woman on the left edge hurries to her rendezvous! Henry Miller was staple diet during my teens:) 14 Apr 2009 7:09am Angel from Madrid, SpainImpressive east game of planes and the detail of the figures is extraordinary Greetings 14 Apr 2009 7:39am Lunamania from Oakland, United StatesFeels like people are foraging against the backdrop of a desolate cityscape--dark image is great. 14 Apr 2009 8:01am Craig@Random Ramblings from Herts, United KingdomWhy is it that one feels compelled to walk along such things (myself included)? They make for a good image anyway, I like the high contrast, super work. 14 Apr 2009 8:07am Thomas from Bangalore, IndiaI like the way you have composed this image keeping the focus on the foreground action while still maintaining some part of the cityscape. 14 Apr 2009 9:17am zOOm from Paris, FranceAlways this personal touch of yours ! Great shot again ! Are they fishing ? 14 Apr 2009 11:15am @zOOm: Thank you Florence. No, I don't think they were fishing, it's not a usual spot for that. Just walking about perhaps... Cheryl from Texas, United Statesmust've been a warm day in Vancouver! Awsome composition and processing. I love the silhouetts, they really add interest here. 14 Apr 2009 1:01pm @Cheryl: No, it was cold and windy over the weekend but at least no rain on this day :) Thanks Cheryl. Godo from Barcelona, SpainHi Blue, 14 Apr 2009 1:42pm Inés from Namur, BelgiumSo cool, derrière la ligne un horizon, puis un autre et encore un autre ... quel beau message ! 14 Apr 2009 1:50pm dogilicious from Millerstown, PA, United StatesExcellent composition. I was wondering from the title if they were working or enjoying the day. Very nice work. 14 Apr 2009 2:24pm dan from Paris, FranceThe impression to walk on the water is evident ! 14 Apr 2009 2:36pm EYES WIDE SHUT from The library of my soul, United KingdomWonderfully observed, Sharon 14 Apr 2009 2:50pm Full Sprint from waterloo, CanadaWonderful ! Love to see clear cityscape background ! Photos looks like sliced of cityscape and seascape ... Really great composition ! 14 Apr 2009 2:55pm Nataly from Santa Monica, United StatesWhat makes you a very good photographer, Sharon, is that not only your style is unique, but you always know what to shoot. You always take photos of the place where your processing would work the best. Great composition! 14 Apr 2009 2:55pm ordinaryimages from Kentucky Bluegrass, United StatesA popular spot, maybe they are hand lining? best...jerry 14 Apr 2009 4:29pm Marcie from United StatesNice pairing of the quote with this image. Really brings it to life!! 14 Apr 2009 4:38pm P J W Miller from Chase Terrace, United KingdomA four part image, each having its own quality, very nicely offset by the rocks in the middle, what a great place to fish 14 Apr 2009 5:26pm Howard F. from South Pasadena, Calif., United StatesI wish I can be there because I am one of those who likes to discover what is up :) Seems like everyone is hard at finding something in the rocks... Nice (mysterious) shot. 14 Apr 2009 5:34pm Anna.C from LA ROCHELLE, FranceI love the contrast between the line of the town in the background and the line of wild world in the foreground, strong contrast and beautiful lighting ! 14 Apr 2009 5:50pm Philip from Joburg, South AfricaAnother excellent seascape Silo it looks so peacful there :)) 14 Apr 2009 6:02pm Rui from Leiria, PortugalThis has definitely your signature. I could see many many photos here on A-3 but yours are unmistakable. Another superb work Sharon. 14 Apr 2009 6:04pm dragos from Ploiesti, RomaniaBeautiful scene. I like the way you captured and framed the buildings in the horizon. Well done. It's a great b/w photo! 14 Apr 2009 6:38pm K.B.R from Switzerlandimage and movement, these people seem to seek something. This black and white makes me remember the films of investigative journalism ... well that is what evokes for me this beautiful photography. 14 Apr 2009 7:03pm Phototherapy from SwitzerlandYou have here a wonderful seascape, with these silhouettes going back and forth. The contrast between the sea and them is cool, they belong to the sea ; 14 Apr 2009 7:04pm @Phototherapy: I have another version...without the buildings, perhaps I will post that one as well at some point, so you may continue dreaming... :) k@ from Paris, FranceLove the marriage of nature/sea and cityscape, creates something strange and original thanks to your close framing ~ 14 Apr 2009 7:28pm eva from Rouen, FranceMysterious contrast between the town and the sea, the figures and the rocks ... Strange... well done ! 14 Apr 2009 7:47pm Terry H. from Azle Texas, United StatesLike the darkness in the tones, very soothing. 14 Apr 2009 8:48pm Liang from San Francisco, United Statesthese people seem to be enjoying being there. and you sure seem to be enjoying taking this photo. very nice processing! 14 Apr 2009 8:58pm pedro alexandre from loures, PortugalExcellent composition, well spotted and captured, love the silhouettes. 14 Apr 2009 9:47pm Ron from Saint Louis, United StatesYou've captured just the right amount of highlight to make this sing ... brilliant ... ron 14 Apr 2009 11:10pm Charles from New York, United StatesWonderful composition with the spacing of the line of men. Great shot. 14 Apr 2009 11:39pm Mike Paulison from United StatesI'm going with Liang on this one. Your photos are what they are because in them you can see your enjoyment in taking them. Really nice! 15 Apr 2009 1:28am grant from kansas city, United Stateswhat a strange setting - the seeming wilderness of rocks and water against the city. excellent image. 15 Apr 2009 1:31am Ajay from Pune, IndiaI feel the touch of Noir genre movies in your shots. That's one of my favorite genres. 15 Apr 2009 1:34am Steve Rice from Olympia, United StatesBeautiful; that's a very cool line across the frame. 15 Apr 2009 2:47am One from Açores, PortugalOutstanding ! Wonderful composition, contrast really good ! 15 Apr 2009 4:39am Scott Schilling from San Martin, United StatesWonderful mood in this group of photos! I love this processing and the B&W - great shot! 15 Apr 2009 4:48am Dustin W. Fletcher from Dallas, United StatesVery bold composing this so that the jetty bisects the frame. It's unconventional being "top heavy", too. Like it. 17 Apr 2009 2:13am Stephane Themeze from Maryland, United StatesThis one is quite surreal. You'd think that people would be in the city! But I do understand the escape walking a thin line... 25 Aug 2009 2:23am |
