Hi Eleu.

Subtle scenes such as this evoke much thought and moodiness, the misty conditions havn't completely lost the view. I like the subtle outlines of the boats, neat semetry of a kind....infact we see less motion and more emotion (poet and didn't know it)

Fitting addition to the theme this week Eleu, take care and have a good weekend.

Hi Eleu,
What a moody scenario. Beautiful misty morning with the sun already trying to penetrate the thick mist. Nice grayish soft atmosphere. One thing I would have been tempted to do, clone the plastic buoys to achieve a more peaceful ambient.
Good work and a worthy entry to the theme.
Regards,

Francis Xavier

You choice to convert to a B&W makes for a stronger mood to your composition Eleu.It wont be long before that bright sun will cut its way through the fog.I wasn't to sure about the moorage bouys being in the scene, espescially the central one,but I believe they help the eye stay focused inside the scene & assist in stopping the bright area of the sun from pulling ones eye upwards towards it,so they are a good balance to your composition.

This is a super shot Eleu, the composition works very well, with the sun trying to peer through the gloom and light the boats in the foreground. I like the addition of the mooring posts in the water too. Very eerie scene and appropriate addition to this weeks theme.

Eleu,

I like this foggy image that adds a feeling of mystery and moodiness.
The B&W rendering works well here revfealing the very subtle textures of the sky.

Hello Eleu, the mist creates a scene of mystery, we have no idea what lies beyond,the bg is completely lost to us!
I like the way that the sun is just breaking through the mist making the faintest hint of a reflection on the water.
A well balanced composition.
Tfs, regards Jean.

Hi Eleu,

The point of view is showing the details of the sailboats lost in the fog. The fog has a spooky effect on the composition. It is a good contribution to the Friday's theme. Have a nice day.

Hi Eleu, I like the sun trying to push through and just leaving a faint trail across the water. Fiona

Hi Eleu,
Considering that the sun is shining straight into your lens, this photo is under exposed, even if the histrogram has all data on the right. Adjusting brightness and still keeping the sun and feel of the fog in good condition is what I would recommend. For the rest, the composition with the placement of the boats is good.
TFS,
Niek
