Winter Morning (for C&C)

[AgentDrex]

Woke up cold and alone
Went outside, low and behold:

The sky is beautiful, the foreground is kind of boring. It leaves me looking at that box and wondering why it's there. Why is it there anyways? lol

 

[tirediron]

Ehhh... I kind of like that. A good photo is one that makes you think. I look at this and think, "Why is that box there?" :thumbup:

 

[AgentDrex]

Ah, the wonders of ice fishing...why do we make our frozen lakes look like shantytowns? That's what we do when it freezes and we want to fish; we set up small shacks on the lake, cut a hole in the ice and fish away.

Nice shot...IMO it captures the isolation and beauty of winter in the same frame.

the box?? --> I figured it was for phone equipment

I'm trying to find the point of focus on the shot, looks soft and oof all the way through. Sky is colored nicely though.

*How does one shoot an aperture of f/0.0 LOL, data must have been lost in translation *

Aperture: f/0.0
Exposure Time: 0.0004 s (1/2500)

It was freezing out, probably fogged the lens with my breath accidentally....

That would be a great spot for a telephone box, in the middle of a lake....

Hey...I've heard some pretty wild stories about those ice houses!...phones, tv, etc., etc. :mrgreen:

 

[AgentDrex]

Satellite tv, stoves, almost like a home, some even have bathrooms (aka hole in the ice) which makes me wonder about people who eat the fish they catch out of the next hole over...

this photo has a lot of potential. i would increase the exposure, but be sure to keep that beautiful sky in mind! maybe play around with the colors in the sky too

 

[Tired but willin]

Love the picture and the sunset looks really gorgeous - would lose the box though as it's kind of distracting.

 

[AgentDrex]

My reasoning for including the box was to add a sense of distance (and loneliness). I wanted something on the other side of the frame from the sun with as little in the middle as possible to achieve that lonely, cold feeling.

Great sky! Foreground is a little dark and boring though. Overall well captured sky and great use of RoT
