This is a top class photo Sayed. Very well composed - The water surrounded by the green all around - The boat has just emerged into the light and the reflection is mirror-like.

Hey Sayed,

Agree with the above comments. Nice shot. :o)

For your creative consideration then ... as I downloaded your image here and performed a couple of crops. Hope you don't mind.

Well, that and along with some quick post processing. However, that stuff was rushed.

Let's look at your composition in a couple of different versions. One, less foreground ... the other, less sky. More or less.

"Village river" - less sky.

"Village river" - less foreground.

So, the question is ... note any differences? In what your eyes perceive and see first in the two 'reworked' versions compared to that of your original?

Does one image/photo tell a different story, than that of the others?


My personal caveat, in my humble opinion of course, is that of the foreground. As much as it sets up the rest of your image ... perhaps, and as a suggestion only ... crop it. Some, that is.

And then the thought that a more wide screen presentation might provide an assist to your viewers ... following some of the lines already present and within frame (that of the boat itself and the shorelines).


/\ Simply put ... some creative food for thought for you when composing your photos.


That is not to say that I don't enjoy your original. Not at all. It is a strong photo and one that you should be proud of.

And but of course, thank you for sharing this one with us. :o)

Actually I like the one with the less sky the best. The sky isn't all that dynamic and the wires are gone.
It is a great shot the way it is as well. The reflection is wonderful.

Very good shot Ikka. I love the Village river - less foreground crop by les (purmusic). I would love to have a wide screen version of this.
