Re: Crovie, Aberdeenshire

That's very nice ... when I was viewing my screen chopped the top and bottom off and accidentally it looked even better ... but that's just my very humble opinion.

Talk about clinging to the edge.

Re: Crovie, Aberdeenshire

The red and blues work really well. I would also crop a little from the bottom.

Nice One Douglas, though I agree with Mike, just a wee bit off T&B.

I think it would have been better taken from about 2meters to the left

Re: Crovie, Aberdeenshire

I love that. The blue sky, the water reflection, the row of houses, the little jetty. It tells a story. Thanks for sharing.

Re: Crovie, Aberdeenshire

Thanks folks...

I'll play around with a different crop (top and bottom) to see what its like..

Hope that's not your shadow in the bottom right

You've framed the shot well there Douglas, great view, would be good for a sunset shot just now to.
The image could take a colour balance layer just to balance things out and the horizon needs a slight lift up on the left.

Good grief...schoolboy error - yes it is my shadow....

I was quite literally clinging to the edge of the cliff face, as gorse bushes were obscuring the view from the "tourist spot" and I decided to venture over the fence to get the shot...

Hi Douglas,

I agree to cut a part of the sky because the comp would improve, but it's just my opinion.
I really like the vertical cut, the point of recovery and colors: a very nice image, congrats!!
