4 & 5 are great!
2 & 3 are missing something, but I think some PP would do the trick! I can't quite put my finger on it though...

Thanks for getting some shots of "wild ice" while we still can! I like them. Where were they taken?

#4 is great! #2 and 3 seem a little dark and need a boost in contrast.

#4 for me, it has the best combination of light and colour....plus the composition is on the money.

I think you have some very good shots here. I love the color you are getting in 1, 4, & 5.

Cappahayden · May 21, 2008

Thank you all for commenting. Yes 2 and 3 were taken just before dark and I did not have a tripod, so I tried to balance increasing ISO with the shutter speed to at least get a reasonably sharp picture. I could probably take a little more time in the PP and see if I can come up with something better. ian5940 these were taken on the north east area of the Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland. Thanks again for your comments and advise.

#4 is excellent, well done :thumbup:

I'm really liking 1, 4 & 6 (mainly for the tones).

darkpbstar · May 21, 2008

so do you live in Newfoundland? These pictures are really quite amazing. I feel the same way for 2&3 as others have said, and you've explained. Great photos.

I assume you are a NFLD'er too?

Neat..so am I ^.^ It's nice to come across fellow Newfoundlanders!

Lovely shots, too, btw...I took a few photos of those icebergs last Saturday when I was in town

Why do I get the feeling to just shout "ICEBERG AHEAD!!!" lol

Your shots are amazing. I have never seen an iceberg, other than in pictures. Maybe one day, when I can convince myself to go to a colder climate for a visit. Great job on #'s 1,4,5,6!

Thanks Arch , Lefty, Dark, MissMia, HD and Meg for taking time to reply. I will probably post a few others soon but am on the fence with them because the day was hazy and low contrast. Trying to increase contrast is a dogs breakfast because it doesn't take much to blow out the berg's. Clear crisp days with deep blue sky's are the best... but hard to come by. Thanks again, and HDPIX, how about posting some of your's? Meg it was about 60 degrees F Sunday evening when I took these and some years icebergs can hang around into July so you can view them comfortably wearing a Bikini if you are so inclined.

Thanks again.
