Sitting on the dock of the bay.

Wasn't sure whether to put this in here or in the landscape & scenery forum. Does this work better in colour, black & white or neither!

 

[Graphic-Addict]

Black and white I think. Dont know what the resolution of this is but I'd be tempted to crop right down just to the guy?

I quite like the colour version but agree with the previous post that it may look good cropped right down to just the bloke on the pier.

I would agree just the man, the pier and the water.

 

[Dave Stone]

Hows this?

 

[Mojo Jojo]

this put that otis reading song in my head lol
the crop is much much better that sea looks beautiful

 

[bully74uk]

Yep, the crop is good IMO.
Has me wondering what he is looking at.

 

[rh1944]

Hows this?

I've had a quick crop and I reckon it would stand getting rid of that bit of pier to the top? By the way the colour seems richer in this version which I much prefer.

Here we are. Another try. I will get the hang of this one day.

Lovely. I think you have got the hang of it. There's sometimes a better photo in the photo we took. Seeing it yourself is the hard part. Great composition now with the man on a third and none of us knowing what he is doing there and what is he thinking.

 

[Dave Stone]

Thanks very much. Your right about the photo in a photo. Sometimes I take one and know there is a good pic in there somewhere, just can't seem to see it.

Nice shot Dave

I have to agree, there is so much more "in it" now than in the original
