The Belle

New work!!! It's been a little while. I got over to the coast earlier this week. Shot the Newport Bridge for the first time. Had a nice sunset!

Looks pretty awesome. I just don't know about the rock in the foreground..

Man, your work is awesome, but I don't know if I like the Belle distracting from this scene. The boat looks distorted from the wide angle and is so much bigger than everything else in the shot. Keep up the good work, I enjoy seeing your latest shots!

I like everything but there is something that feels off. Might be the composition or the distortion.

it needs a bit of perspective and distortion correction

Thanks all, most of your statements perfectly mirror the inner monologue I had when putting this together. I have a different composition which I'll process and post later. I was on the borderline

I went back and forth. I have one without the rocks that I'll process.

Thanks Pilot. Belle is definitely the subject here, but at this focal length seems like more of a distraction.

I think that's exactly what I was thinking. All the elements are there, but they didn't come together as I'd hope. I think it's because there's too much water and it throws off the balance of the scene.

Yeah it was badly distorted, this is after correction. Not that it's perfect now.

Thanks all, I'll come around and post a different comp from here that I think will be better.
