wow
love the dock and the smooth water...

you also seem to have exactly the right saturation and colors...

very nice.... I see this framed....interacting with some other object in a room,....

it makes me want to be there to verify the reality.....

//////////

now I have a technical question.... as a boater of sorts...
is this dock sort of reaching out.... almost exclusively supported on the rock?....like maybe the pilings or support IN the water are not allowed ? just meets the rules....sort of thing?

it seems to float above the water.. which subtly adds to some surreal effect... just for me...

the colors and processing are great...to my eye

thanks for taking a moment
TOM

Only a couple of weeks in but I'm loving the "look" it gives.


Canon cash-back helps too. ;D

One of the first shots from the 16-35 f2.8L II (used) I recently bought. At first I was disappointed in it's mid frame resolution. The focus was a bit off, and after a quick AFMA (+-12 on both ends =O), it started to perform a lot better. This was handheld, probably would have been a lot sharper had I used liveview and my tripod.

How much?!!


It should pretty much perfect as new. No way should it be 12. My 18 year old 28-70 2.8 is -11.




Take it back!
