Description

This shot is ment to be a play with angles and at the same time capture the colors of the Greek flag. Well I'm not a hundered percent happy with it and I was a bit reluctant to upload it

Sometimes you get that feeling when you shoot something that everything is just right, then when you work with it you keep finding things you want to improve until you have over worked it. Well that happend over and over with this and I had to start from scratch a million times or so. Anyways, this is the end result, any comments or crits would be much appreciated

Hope you like it

Love
Johannes

I like the composition and details in the bottom half of this Johannes. I think you've added too much of the sea to this photo which in effect, cuts this photo into two halfs. This doesn't help the composition. I might have cropped about 1/2 - 3/4 of an inch above the chimney. The contrast is nice but much of the wall is over-exposed and details have been lost. With this type of photo, it is best to use AE-Lock in different areas and also to use exposure bracketing. I do enjoy this series of high contrast photos from you. I find them all most interesting.

Good work,

Michelle

uuuh for the first the line of whatever it is (a rooftop?), that is closest to the water is all messed up (pixelate from re-sizing?), that really takes my focus..
It also feels like I'm gonna fall over to the right, becaues of the stairs and the crop.
Another thing is that I'd like to see the whole pic at the same time.. I think I was meant to see it all at the same time?
ah this drives me nuts, I love all your other work! I feel awful just saying bad things, but I can just say that I agree with what you said in your description, and that all your other work is amazing! You are a great photographer!

Johannes,
I love that sea of Greece... blue, blue blue!!!

The contrast between the blue and the bright white houses/walls is really something extra...
I agree with Michelle about the left wall being a bit overexposed, and thereby loosing details. The details are much better on the wall which is on the right side of the stairs.
Keep up the good work man!!!

Hey, thanks for the great feedback. Michelle you are so right about the cropping it is indeed split up in two and Repercutir, you are also very right, that pixelating of the roof top looks awefull to me too. Guess I missed it since my eyes were to tired from looking at it for too long allready. Anyways, back to the drawing board. Thanks for the very usefull feedback, much appreciated

I have to agree totally with Michelle, specially on the sea. It is a too much effect on it. But this is a very nice addition to the series!

I completely agree with Lostside. It's not the best, but still it's a great photo and a great series. I love the details of the sea, but the white is a bit too white.
Great work.

i disagree with everyone i see what you were trying to do with the sea, and i like it, its so blue, and it sort of spills down the eyepath of the viewer, its weight is need against the white white walls, the sense of distance in the water is great, and i also don't mind the framing, your creating a eyepath that shoots from the bottom straight up, and then wanders around through the water, everything left and right of the stairs is accessory to the movement of the piece...+9

This is a wonderful scene!

For me it's not a problem if the left wall is a bit too overexposed...the main detail, the hand rail, is well visible, and there aren't others relevant things to look at on that side of the wall...the deep blue of the sea is fantastic...love the shadows of the steps....maybe the only thing is the tent on the right that is a bit distracting (but difficult to avoid)....other than that, it's exactly how a wonderful mediterranean place looks like!
Nice capture!

This one is beautiful, but I can't help thinking it's annoying that I have to scroll. For this photo, one really needs to see the entire composition... perhaps even smaller, or another crop. Good work though.

EDIT: (Alternate version is better to me, because it's smaller.)

Nice photo! the crispness of the image and contrast of the white stone work and blue sea is amazing, very nicely taken Johannes!
