Into the mist

the photos not dicky i love it..

I do like this effect so a winner from me. Almost a dreamy feel ..lets the viewer see it in their own way.

Brilliant – agree with ToTS – tres zen (if that’s not an oxymoron lol)

That’s just plain awesome, Mel!

Yes Hate to tell you this but it works The simplicity, softness and a feeling of abdonment and isolation. Simply brilliant

The simplicity of this image is just beautiful.

xkc

great negative space.

Fabulous- this is defenitely photography as art. Love it

simplicity done to perfection

Works for me – the negative space and the cool mist – very creative.

Wow Brilliant

Oh my…this is lovely work there…

Wow! Beautiful Mel…

the space, the space – it’s all about the space! love his Mel… really appeals to me!

Love it Mel…gives it a mysterious feeling.

Beautiful!

Simple and brilliant work gorgeous xxxx

i think this is astounding. yves tanguy would love this. the embodiment of surrealism meets zen.
phenomenal mel, what a pleasure to view.

Works fantastically Mel.. The high key misty feel evokes that feeling of loss so pertinent to wrecks.

less is more

This works a treat, very tranquil.

Gorgeous!

A somewhat slightly different take on your other excellent shots of the SS Dicky. Works very well …

Yep… brill as usual! You’ve excelled with this one; particularly love the uncluttered and clean feel :o)

Does not appeal to me….......sorry for being honest Mel

Looks like you have a very cold Dicky there Mel.
Nice work :-)

My thoughts? I absolutely freaking ADORE IT!!!

Great shot.

good shot!

Love the minimalist feel to this image.

i’m believing more and more in synchronicity…... wonderful image …haunting beauty
mists .............b

stunning!

Oh, you caught the mist just right, great timing!

a wonderful piece

Clever miminalism, I like this style….classy and posh….it’s like dining in a Restaurant where you get a big plate with some garnish.

This is absolutely beautiful, haunting almost

Wow….Stunning shot!!!

Simple colour but really effective.

haunting, dreamy atmosphere, I like it. Ever think of doing some more IR shots? :)

Awesome treatment. Love the unconventional style compared to your other shots of this wreckage Mel!

Wonderful covers it well Mel…

awesome mel, love the misty mystical look well done

wow! this is fantastic! love what you have done with this… guess you got your answer – seems to be v. popular…

I try to live by a motto in my life that my father taught me at a very young age….
K.I.S.S. = Keep it simple stupid!

Disclaimer! – I am by no means saying that you are stupid!!!

This photo works so well because it is simple, clean, and pure!

That is one eerie yet serene looking Dicky – great shot :o)

Minimal and gorgeous. This is incredibly dreamlike and definately gives off the feel off an inbetween world somewhere between the concious and the subconcious. The lighting is so bright yet calming and a feeling of relaxation surveys across the scene whilst you await someone from the mist.

simply beautiful capture ( stuart, just before me, covered it totally…it’s just awesome) :)

Great atmospheric effect. Beautiful.

I love this … it has a dreamlike state where mystery and imagination are everything

Mel I love your work you know that but this one is a little hard for my eyes to see. Huggs

outstanding

Lovely, calming, dreamy~ like the sun is breaking through a dense fog and you are the only one there to see it. I can almost feel the silence.

I see your work via Geoff Coleman’s new group…..and I am glad – my compliments on your body of work!

Love it – beautiful work!

absolutely superb

Perfect, beautiful find

i really like the ghostly feel to this. the simplicity of the image gives a very “fine art” feel to the shot.

Nicely done Mel pretty eerie.

Looks like the rising of Charon’s Barge from the river Styx, amazing how much this treatment changed this old hull.

giving the wreck room to breath gives it lots of strength and direction by minimizing the content gives a lovely feeling of tranquility I love the mist for this reason, great shot

Simple beauty, very dreamy.

fantastic

awesome!! i LOVE this!!

Beautiful!

Love this Mel.

Stunning image… love the contrast of the soft tones with the harsh sharp edges of the dark remains of the boat.

lovely piece of minimalist mono work. i enjoy the smooth white contrasted to the dark jagged wood beams. very nicely done.

Minimalism at its best!

I’ve seen this wrecked photographed many times here on RB, but this, this one is the best by far! I’d love to quote Joanne Bradley on this one: “Minimalism at its best!”

This is a great shot! Your long exposure works are very well done.
