Para bems! I love the composition. I agree that maybe a B/W version could be more appropriate for this image. I'd also prefer to see more of the hills in the background (Niteroi?); but of course, that is already beyond your control--because of the hayes (i am not sure if a hayes filter could have solve that). Anyway, overall a very beautiful image. Congratulations!

This is something I would buy and hang on my wall. Great shot!
One thought, I think this might look better in black and white. There's not much color anyway.

Fabulous! That is an hymn to climbers! I would see this photograph on the cover of a book about the passion of climbing! There is one thing missing in this deviation, the magic red letters: 'print available' !
The hazy look at the distant features of the landscape in contrast with the sharp image of the climbers is wonderful. Even more because the silhouette has at the same time detail, is not tottaly flat black but we can see it the two ways: if we stare at the bright hazy sky we see them as silhouettes, if we concentrate our observation on them we can see the details of the equipment and their positions. I also like very much the detail of the waves because it gives the picture its true awesome dimension, a very important feature then. And not necessary to mention the refinements of the croping and framing, with precise proportions and location of margins.

You make it feels like my masterpiece...but I'll get there someday, I promise. And you gave me a great motivation: I'll send this picture to a brazilian magazine to see if the like it too...how knows?

Kisses

still no print...

See that they don't minimize its valor in order to almost use it for free (they usually do that )

Wow, this is completly incredible. The whole composition and the nice silhouette on the climber is just too perfect. Seriously, this is one of your best climbing photo. The colors are not incredible (which is the only thing I can critique here), but the mono-tone gives a nice effect.

I love climbing and I train myself pretty hard to increase my level and those kind of pictures make me wants to travel and have the chance to visit such incredible places, and I sure will ! (When I'll have the age/money/etc.). You are so lucky !

Very very cool.
I guess if I was going to critique I'd wish that the left side wasn't so washed out and the right side so dark, but I'm guessing this was the quality of the scene and there were just too many stops difference in the available light to pull that off.

I really really like this picture.

AnaAraujo In reply to andymatter [2004-10-03 02:12:04 +0000 UTC]

I'm glad you liked. I agree with you about the washed left side, but a faded sun ray was crossing that point and I din't want to edit so much the picture

Thanks

This is one of the most beautiful compositions I've ever seen on DA!!! Just a little more of contrast on the climbers to make it perfect... But it sure is one hell of a difficult shot!!! Congrats... You have my !!!
