This is beautiful, love those green ropes and how filled with details and textures this image is! Lighting is perfect and the dark clouds and sky, along with their watery reflection really set this scene off. Fantastic entry for the contest, Charlotte, wish you all the best!

What a cool mixed media post. I love so much about this piece. The contrast with the dark clouds and light on the traps is excellent. The twisted texture of the green ropes adds a lot of interest tot he shot.
The HDR makes the shot for me. Very well done!

Charlotte,
It deserves a six but I've run out of Sixes. A very beautiful & atmospheric picture of the
Lobster Pots & the green ropes with the cloudy sky reflected on the glistening surface of the bay. Beautiful composition framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & razor sharp focus.

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us a very enjoyable view of the ropes and pots on that boat. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

Comment from soulfeeder
I really love this scene especially that these are lobster pots. I can just imagine the hardworking fishermen in the middle of the sea collecting lobster which is my favorite sea food. The green rope is just a pleasant sight and is a nice entry to this Color Green contest. The textures and colors are prominent and well defined. The presentation is superb also showing the overcast sky and serene bluish ocean in the background. Your artist's notes describes that nature reserve filled with wildlife like a paradise. I wonder if you happened to reach that place called Farne Island. Overall, this scene is a stellar! Wish you the best!

Thank you very much Soulfeeder (sorry I never manage to remember your name, I know it begins with N - I've a memory like a sieve!).
Yes, the Farne Islands are one of my favourite places in the world (all my puffin photos come from there) - if you ever come to England it's a must, but wrap up warm!

You are welcome, Charlotte. I am actually expecting this to WIN. We have the same issue. Sometimes, I am hesitant to mention the name because I am not sure. LOL! So you have been to PARADISE. Maybe, I will visit Spring or early Summer. I love your images. They're my cup of tea.
Here's my legal name- Nieves. Try to remember that it is the Spanish equivalent for the term "snow". I grew up in an old Spanish town. I mean we were colonized for three hundred years, hence, the Spanish name.
Have a great week! This year is almost over.

Hi Nieves :) I've now written it down!!! But maybe I'll just call you Snow, there is neither an i or or an e in that, which together I always manage to get wrong despite the rule - i before e except after c...and the million other exceptions! LOL
:( Well it didn't win. But that frog that did was rather wonderful!
Make your visit in spring, as the puffins and many of the other birds there are gone by the end of June as they only go to the Farne Islands to breed.

I'm disappointed that you did not win. Here in FAR the winners can be strange most of the time. I love to be called "SNOW". Some of my classmates in college would call me that name. I will let you know if I will come and visit. I had been ready to travel but my teenager still needs a little help and support so I am tied up but it is getting better. Anyway, stay warm and have a Joyous Christmas Season, Charlotte.

I love this one and the green rope makes it an excellent entry for this contest ! I think the HDR Has produced a painterly like image to show the ropes and lobster pots on the left and the sea out on the right. You have brought out such amazing detail ! The focus is spot on the image is sharp and clear, exposure is perfect , the colors are beautiful together and they appear true and natural,
Well composed and presented! This will be difficult to beat! Very best wishes to you !

Thank you so very much Pat!
I do like HDRs for that very reason, they so often look like paintings - other times they come out over-saturated and a complete mess! Lol
I'm so pleased you liked it.

Beautiful!!! Your photo is not only creative in blending three photos together but the placement and composition are outstanding! The contrast of the colors is well done and the depth is arresting, it feels like you can see for miles! The sharp focus through out is excellent. Congratulations on such a well done photo and best wishes for the contest!!
