This is beautiful. I don't know if that is a painting in the backgound or if you did it with dof, but the effect is absolutely breathtaking. 10

That sky is absolutely gorgeous. I think this was an especially challenging challenge. I believe it fits the challenge well. Overall this shot is good. I like the story I get from it. Not sure how this could be improved, IMO... 8

Very nice. It maintains the rope as the subject of the picture but gives the viewer alot more to look at. One of my favorites in this challenge.

Great angle. :)

I like this shot, I wonder if it would have been better to have the background in focus rather than out. (??)

Love the DOF with such great clarity up front. The colors are awesome and almost surreal. Very nice shot. Bumping up 1 for now.

One of my favorites.....awesome DOF and focus on the dock cleat. Good luck.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/23/2006 11:21:05 AM
Very nice use of DOF to make the background look like a painting. You've kept the rope as the primary subject, which is good considering the challenge theme. My top pick...hope it does well for you. Good luck.

I like the colors in the photo
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/23/2006 03:57:21 AM
excellent DOF. Is the background a real harbour or a photo on your studio wall?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 08/22/2006 09:01:46 PM
Beautiful. Love the colors, depth of field. It tells a peaceful story. Brilliant.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

awesome depth of field...a great idea...perhaps a little too much contrast???
