Cool capture. The clarity is great. The angle of the shot of this tail in the water created by the ship is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

They added reality to an otherwise mystery photograph. We see this frothy wake in films time and again, but don't think of it in reality. I have sat by the water of Ports: Qingdao for hours on end, every morning when I was teaching afternoon shift, Cleethorpes, Scarborough etc and you never see it, just ship, line water.. fantastic shot. Lover the two deck hands!

Comment from supergold


what I mostly like is of course the very long wake left behind the ship, rather than the two half bodies of the workers; they are a distraction;

I admire how your photographs are so clearly detailed like this recent one produced by your very talented skills as a photographer. This is superb photography that encompasses water transportation via the cruise ship, cruise workers hard at work, and scenic panoramic views of the vast ocean and sky.

Even though there was bit interruptions on the pic, it is still a great waterscape capture. Love the water wakes behind the ship and created a nice composition. Well balanced and depth of field in the picture.

A nice idea to shoot the wake and the ocean. The detail in the foreground are excellent but I think I would like to see a bit more of the workers.

    Very many thanks for a good review! Unfortunately I could not get the horizon and more of the workers in a satisfactory composition.

I really like your point of view with the stream of water from the ship in speed, and it is the sea with its waves and great colors doing this photo more than anything. The stern and the workers are almost a distraction, but their presence for sure adds depth to the photo.

The photo is nice and sharp showing clear and well defined details in the foreground, and the exposure is spot on.

With the fine leading lines, the format and framing, it is a very good balance in the composition. It is a lovely and well taken photo, and with a very good DOF.

Nice photograph of the ocean and sky with so many different hues of blue color; the back of the deck with people searching for something is a nice interruption.

The two seaman seem busy with something we cannot see. This adds interest because it triggers the imagination of the viewers about what they are doing there. There are rain clouds in the background and the ocean is choppy, but nothing dangerous seems ahead. Your photo is well focused and exposed and has impressive depth. I appreciate the realism of color and light and the refinement of detail. How the wake leads our eyes to the horizon is intriguing. The seascape is well composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

I love to look back when I am on a boat and watch the wake following behind.
Well captured with good stop of the motion. Well focused, this image is clear, exposure is correct, colors and tones appear true and natural, the two deck hands give scale as well as bringing life to this scene. Well composed and presented!
