simple but every neat capture
i like how you gave it a vastness feeling by zooming out
i like shit shot
would be cooler w/o the rocks but its kinda hard to dig them out and retake the shot

Magnificent shot, Stru.
The calm, the serenity, the crystal clear water of the blue lagoon.
I'd recommend to try and mess around with the position of the subject (man in the boat) in these types of shots.

This is just lovely. I'm learning so much from you and your photos and drawings. You have such a way of creating just that perfect pose or perfect angle that will just dazzle the viewer. The crop and the capture are incredible. Those colors are just amazing. Makes me wish I was there. The progression in the blues and greens up until the rocks makes this an amazing photo. Bah, i'm babbling again. BEAUTIFUL work as always and i'm so glad to see you posting again!!!

Truly a magnificent shot, I feel like I'm looking at a picture from a travel guide or a surfing mag I feel so content looking at this, it's so refreshing.. but obviously not as much as actually being there taking the shot. The black frame really highlights the crystal water, a white frame would really throw this at your face and most probably be way to bright, so great choice in frame. The colour progression is beautiful, and what stands out most for me is the true blue colour inside the dingy/boat, I think that's what draws me into this photograph.
I think I've rambled on enough already, you get the point, I love it.

aizat [2004-08-16 16:12:15 +0000 UTC]

wow, nice shot, only problem i see is that the guys neck looks a bit thin damn lighting the ripples are sweet, but i cant tell thats the light reflecting off the wave, or the light actually in the water, i prefer the later. the deep blue in the boat is a raely constrast, and draws the persons attention there. hehe, i miss your surfing pics, those were sweet, but nonetheless great to see you posting again

I'm so glad you're submitting again I love your photography.. This is absolutely beautiful, the fade from the slightly green coloured water out into the deep turquoise, and the soft ripples in the water revealing the soft white sand, cut by the wake (if you would call it that) of the speed boat.. you've framed this really nicely. you've captured peace and solitude, and looking at this picture, or more imagining I was there, makes me forget all my troubles. I also see you have applied the rule of thirds nicely I'm learning a lot from you. I love the rocks above and below the boat, they provide a break in the blue ocean and for me, they make the picture more complete. Loving it
