Looks simple but I bet it was a difficult shot. Good concept

Just how does one hold a door handle without it looking completely unnatural??!

Very cool shot, I want to see what's outside !

And the lighting in your people shot is great!

And all caught up

Week 42 - Local

 

[-Oy-]

Nice looking lighthouse - and nice side light. Odd composition though.

 

[AlanDorset]

Friends, as you say you sometimes end up with too much choice, I just ask Mrs Dorset! - I'd have probably chosen the anglers, more of a story in there. The tree in the B&W shot, I get the concept but is a bit too intrusive for me.
Local - what great textures and light on that lighthouse.

I have an absolute gazillion shots of that light house capturing it all going back 20 years, and as nice as it is I am a bit over it. I only had my 70-200mm lens with me yesterday so I thought I'd go for a tighter view.

Thanks for the feedback, i suspect you're right on the composition. I was going for a bit of framing and to make it feel more intimate.

The fishermen was my second choice but I didn't want the back of someone's head.

The friends shot are all good.

As others have said the light in the Lighthouse shot works well.

 

[HelenC]

Friends. I would have chosen the same shot too. It tells a story to me.
Local. Something a bit different to the usual wide shot of such a subject.

 

[BobBCN]

I think you chose the right shot for friends but maybe I would have cropped down to just the window.

Thanks. I already cropped it quite a bit, but I should have probably zoomed with my legs a bit more.
