quiksilva Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 (edited) I took these shots last night after a hard, hot, day's fishing which eventually saw me catch three Giant Snakehead and one, small, Barramundi. This meagre haul is half of what I'd normally expect to catch, but the sunset just about made up for it. I know its usual to post one pic, but I cant decide on one, rather I was hoping that by inviting comments on several shots of (mostly) the same subject with different compositions, it would help me frame better shots in the future.

svenivan Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I like no 1 best. Good composition and good colors. The grass in the bottom helps to frame it. No 2 could be better without the houses in the background. Too much sky in no 3. I miss the frame in no 4 & 5. No 1 is a "keeper"! Put a thin black frame around it!

Familyonthemove Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 1 and 3 look excellent to me. I agree that the house in the background of 2 spoils the shot and the setting sun ones look much more dramatic than the daylight shot. I think 1 is the best, but I would crop it slightly tighter - especially on the right side, where the hut leads the eye nicely into the shot but there's a bit too much space behind the hut for me.

paulfromphuket Posted September 4, 2011 Share Posted September 4, 2011 must have been a hell of an evening, all good but i think a crop on 2 would be the best result. hope the bbq went weel too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiksilva Posted September 5, 2011 Author Share Posted September 5, 2011 Thanks you, yes it was a really nice evening, and it certainly made up for a slow days fishing. All these shots were taken at around the same time, i.e. just after 6pm, however the second pic was facing East with the setting sun behind me hence the daylight and pink colouration of the clouds in the sky. The light facing East was still nice so I wanted to try and capture it but as you say, it was not as dramatic as the sunset, and yes I see how a crop could improve 2 & 3.
