The Blue Boat

wow… this is brilliant …

fantastic

Nice SC

want to add that the perspective on this is outstanding. getting into almost any position other than ‘stand and shoot’ certainly adds to the character of a picture, but getting down low and right off the edge of the rope is, well, it’s just genius, that’s what it is!!

great vantage point!!!! love how you kept some color but made the res b&w. a really sharp photo!!

Great perspective, I agree with Troy. The colour work is awsome too!

just lovely, excellent viewpiont and clever treatment.

Thank you all, love these old relics of our past! I’m back up that way next week and will have another go at this site with other boats!

great composition and treatment

brilliant, i love the striking blue, it just jumps out at me, Great Photo….yet again :0)

I like how u made the background black and white and coloured the boat :)

Beautiful and inspiring.

different look at a boat, love the duo tones & the way the mooring line makes the picture stand out from the crowd, great composition &n a well worked shot, an outstanding piece of work

I absolutely love your perspective on this. and the blue is stunning.
Your photography is just stunning!

this struck me straight away from your home page of images and i just had to have a look….the colour treatment allows the boat to have a personality and it demands appreciation.

Great shot, the colors are so dynamic!

Terrific perspective and the selective colouring has an interesting effect on the rope – I want to reach out and grab it. It has come to life!

Great perspective and DOF :) Really like the colour / B&W work you’ve done on this one.

STUNNING SHOT

Gorgeous – really like htis image :)

Awesome!!!

Amazing depth of field in this and I love the angle you chose to take this photo from. I also think selective coloring was a brilliant choice for this.

Love this angle of capture and perspective! Selective coloring at it’s best! Amazing texture on that boat!

OMG I love the pov here stephen…and not to mention the s/c work!!! SUPERB!!!

Excellent shot, what a great perspective and comp.

Love the perspective on this…..the rope is great…leading to the boat. And the SC works perfectly. Lovely shot.

Such a wonderfully handled comp Stephen!! Love it!! Well done!

Love the lighting/treatment!

nice use of b&w and color, this makes for a lovely image

Brilliant perspective and the selective colour really adds to the impact. Well seen and photographed!

Great image. Really like the colour treatment.

Excellent use of selective coloring. The b/w background and foreground only help to emphasize the colorful boat and adds a good amount of drama and intensity.

Not normally a big fan on black & white with colour, but this works really well.

Nice belly shot! Fab angle and composition .. Cheers Steve

beautiful shot,,, well done

Excellent POV!!!!!!!!!

great photography!
