Nova Scotian view - the re-crop

Never one to ignore an interesting comment, I have cropped this image to respond to D's comment to "make it more of a feature". So, have tried to do this. Does this work better? Is this what you had in mind, D?

Nova Scotian view

Colin and Damian should recognise this scene. Taken from the car on the way to/from Keji National Park, when Kate and I were over in April 05. Lovely vivid colours, and a great day. Nice scene, if not an award-winner.

Boats on calm water

I shot this photo last year while on 'retreat'. What attracted me was the deep green of the water and the contrast with the white boat. It was a very peaceful scene. The water was incredibly still with some great reflections.

This boat was shot on the same morning. Here the contrast of the bright colours with the still light grey water and the reflection was what attracted me.

Sable Island south beach

Hi,

Here is a vertical shot from Sable Island, south beach. The photos feels quite atmospheric to me and I like the different layers: overcast sky, cloudy sky, sea and beach.

Comments welcome. Damian

Canoe Colours

Again, on the theme of colour (and texture, I guess), a photo of some upturned canoes from our trip to Nova Scotia in 2005. I wanted to concentrate on the shapes, colours and textures, and positioned the image to kind of radiate out, flower like, from the top left of the image.
