Harbour Clouds Photo

Photographer’s Note

This shot was taken on another goregous day in Sydney, Australia. Each cloud seemed daunting in the perfectly blue skies.

Comments and Workshops welcome.

only one remark, crop a bit from the right so that the line of buildings totally fills the horizon.

Eric,
Very nice effects - city in the below and a great sky. Very sharp - almost to sharp? It would have been even better had there been light on the right part of the city too.

MvS

Great photo
Empty part on the right brings balance for your photo because of concentrating of high buildings on the right. I mean if there was no empty part, the right side would be heavier.

j'aime bien ton emphase sur les nuages
a la ville dans le bas. Je suis d'accord avec reddswan pour dire que tu aurais pu
arranger les verticales avec PS, et peu-être un filtre polarisant pour assombrir un peu le ciel ? keribar

Excellent composition! You got a very sharp sky and horizon.

Well done

The big sky and very low horison is lovely. Nice clouds too. I think it would be even better if the perspective was corrected, the outer building lean quite a bit.

fredon (4754) 2005-02-06 12:35

Great composition. I like these kind of massive sky frame. I only regret you didn't push enough the contrast to my taste, so i made a workshop. The "cumulus streets" are really well captured.

Hi Eric,
What a beautiful picture ! I like all these clouds of cotton flying above this famous harbour.
Very nice composition and colours.
See you
Patrick

very good photo Eric,
I like your low horizon photo.the city is bringing in good details on the photo and the sky is nice. I like good skies. The only thing is that you may have a better shot when you give this one some more contrast. Farther very good job

Very good - the clouds seem quite imposing over the city - you really seem to have captured the scene perfectly, well done!

avigur_11 (21317) 2005-02-06 16:34

I agrre with Anton's remark about the cropping, but still it is a brilliant composition and a very very well captured shot. Incredibble sky, great shot, Eric.

wow, that is all

Nice shot of Sydney, the amount of sky you've left in this image is great and something new.

sandpiper (1917) 2005-02-08 0:45

Ah yes this is quite a good effect. I would have corrected the lean of the buildings, but that is a minor thing. The clouds are great. I think the frame is a little thick.

spence (1554) 2005-02-09 22:38

Great shot, Eric! I love the low horizon, the clear colours and Sydney's fabulous sky. I'd prefer a tighter crop from the right and a much lighter weight frame (or none at all). But I like it a lot, and you have some other really nice shots of Australia in your portfolio. Well done.

Nice shot Eric;

The clouds almost look as though they were painted in. Good choice in composition, and vibrant colors.
Well done mate!

Cheers,
- Dan

Hi Eric. Great photo, nice big sky. Unrelated I got my BS at Lehigh in 1991. I can't say anything nice about Bethlehem, hang in there you'll soon get out again!

alego (277) 2005-10-27 23:35

Hi Eric

Simply beautiful. It is one of those images that can work grat as a poster. I agree with 'khmelins', you may wont to crop on the right.
Too bad you did not have a better camera.

I'm a sucker for a nice sky. This is just great.
I like the composition you've chosen. To make the sky the main focus is great!
