Default Early morning fishing

Photographers Comments
I like making shots in early morning. This picture was made from a boat on a lake in Hungary. The fog gives the scene a bit misterious effect. That was my aim with this picture.

Hi Cleano, i personally like this kind of landscape shot. I dont think everything has to be pin sharp to be a good image. The ducks add to it as well for me. Nice image.

Leslie you are making me want to visit Hungary more and more!

You have asked for crits and for me the only tiny niggle would be to add ever so slightly more detail if possible to the land parts of the image. Apart from that I love it. Nice colour, clean, simple and uncluttered. A real mood setter.

Hi Cleano, very nice image, (this sort of shot happens to early in the morning for me). The three ducks really make this image with the boats in the background. Only comment I have is that I think the horizon is dropping down on the right. But still a very nice image.

Hi Cleano
I am an expert on Fishing ... I have some of the longest Stories too!
The mood is set perfectly! Shooting in the early Morn ... the Golden Hour is
My fav time too ... and Fishing.
Agree with
Quote:
the horizon is dropping down on the right
... this can of course be adjusted by Ballast, *pumping more water into the starboard side of the boat* Good to see You Cleano! Enjoy the Fishing!
Viszlát *salute*

Hi for All!

Thank you for your interest and prof comments.

Dennis: you are totally right, not everything has to be pin sharp for a good image

Tco: the fog limited me, but in this way that was the main point...

Barry: I know that holding the horizon horizontally is an important thing, sometimes I lose to keep this rule...

Hello Brian!

Your sense of humour is does not change..., I like that very much.
Glad you like fishing and hope it has many result.

"salute" my friend

Yep agree with the others a nice simple but mood enhancing shot(makes me shiver a bit as the photo makes me feel cold),just needs straightening up a bit...
