    James you’ve a great eye for composition. I really like the colours in this is well.

  • James Coard replied about 1 month ago

    Thanks Jim, maybe dabbling in watercolour painting in my younger years helped me with composition. Starting with blank paper is a bit daunting!

    Why the surprise James…I think this image is popular because of it’s sheer simplicity and ambiance. Not to mention the wonderful composition and smooth colourations…at least that is why I like it. Good work man!!

    Why surprised ? This is fantastic, the colours, silhouette, simplicity, the “suggestion” of what lies beyond…...I’ll cut the crap, it’s amazing !!

  • James Coard replied 9 days ago

    Thanks Barbara – I’m so critical of my own work and often have second thoughts about what I upload. It’s just my nature to be like that I think. If you like this it must be good! :o)

    Thanks again David, I’m really surprised by this one – something I spotted after taking a wider shot. I thought it was just ok but people really like it! I am a bit of a colour freak though – I can’t see in black and white like you can – if you know what I mean ;o)

    Funny you say that ~ because when I saw this about an hour ago for the first time ~ I thought ~ ‘I wish I could see in colour like this guy does’
    Yes I can see in black and white, but it does at times deprieve me of the beauty and use of colour, but never the appreciation when someone else can interpret and communicate in colour.

  • James Coard replied 4 days ago

    You’re too kind! I can also appreciate B&W but it never enters my head when I’m shooting.
