I love it. Keep doing what you like and don't worry about dumb comments.

You should judge an image by it's own merits and not compared to the others.
I like BW so what? It is not valid here?

I will always get these kind of comments here?

Anyway thanks for passing by.

Didn't you hear about primes?
Can't you see the boat in like many Kms away?
I want to show the imensity of the sea-sky.

Thsi is too noisey for my liking and the sky is over powering. 5.

Love the sky, but the sailboat's a little small for me!

Great use of grain and emotion in the shot. I hope people give this image gthe respect it deserves....very well done. My only note would be the burning is a bit obvious to the right of the sail boat and on the left side of the image. Very nice though. 8

nice capture, just wish that little boat were closer; I like the sky here!

Brooding. Very nice.
07/05/2007 04:46:26 PM
beautiful skies, wish it weren't noisy
07/05/2007 04:17:20 PM
A bit too grainy.
07/05/2007 03:16:46 PM
Seems to be noisy.
07/05/2007 09:27:13 AM
I think the noise really adds to the picture, but the sky seems a bit overpowering.
07/05/2007 07:26:57 AM
Not sure if the noise is intentional but I feel it would've been better if you cleaned it up. Also the focus seems very soft especially towards the edges.

Love this image. The boat looks so vunerable out there with a storm lurking overhead! The noise helps create a somber mood!
07/04/2007 03:44:59 PM
love the clouds, the grain works really well in this picture to enhance the mood.
07/04/2007 02:25:42 PM
very grainy, but neat look, although composition is all wrong.
07/04/2007 08:20:30 AM
Dramatic shot. A tad too much noise, perhaps try running it through neat image.
07/04/2007 03:10:29 AM
I love the grain in this...awesome drama in the sky 9
07/04/2007 02:26:43 AM
Great sky. Maybe a litle grainey, but I understand what you're doing with this effect. Nice photo.
07/03/2007 10:29:44 PM
indeed little sailboat, a bit to little for my taste.
07/03/2007 08:09:17 PM
Gorgeous. I love your black and white, the grain, and the immensity suggested by the placement of the boat in the frame. Nicely done.
