Three Swans

Thanks for the comments on my last post, I enjoyed the wide range of opinions.

This one was from the different night and converted to black and white. I have cloned out a small highlight from the top right and cropped for composition.

The experimentation process is somewhat frustrating (with about 98% of image in the trash) but I think the results can be good fun... sometimes!

The shutter duration was 13 seconds.

I'd like to know your thoughts on ways I can improve.

Thanks muchly!

Chris

Great shot Chris, I prefer this image more than the last. I love how it looks like they are flowing towards the camera.


liam.

Considering that was a 13sec shutter there's not that much movement, would have expected far more blur to the image. not sure if it's my cup of tea but can appreciate trying something different, I think it's one I'll keep coming back to Chris.

Very nice effect created there,was'nt much for the first one you posted Chris but this is brillant,necks up,and you can clearly see they are swans,love the shape of the three also,very nice

This is really lovely. The last one was headed in the right direction and this one has arrived there! The compressed tonal range is super and the relationship of the three swans to each other is just perfect (imho). This image proves that its really worthwhile pushing the boundaries and seeing what happens.

I like this sort of experimentation, I rarely have the patience for it

Super image

Well done

Hi Chris,

this shots a lot better than the other, you can tell what they are now


Still not too keen but as they so one mans meat etc

Yup...this works a treat IMO. Great capture...look forward to some more boundary pushing! Would be interested in seeing some pano crops.

I agree with others, this is a much better posting than the last one. I look forward to seeing some more.

Hiya Chris, you know my opinion on the last one you posted. I like this better and I can see where you are going with it but still not quite my cup of tea.
