 p.4 #11 · Lofoten - 2 FM guys with Leica M9 and Sony Nex | |
As has been said, a truly wonderful series from you both. Thanks for sharing and allowing us to enjoy and comment.
Philippe, please number yours, I really would like to comment, but gave up! Some lovely shots too.
Boris, I love the clarity, cleanness and colourfulness of yours, which never appeared over saturated to my eye, except perhaps the yellow sky in #38, (but only after seeing Philippe"s, and his may have been taken before/after the colour faded.)
Your technical skills (both taking and processing) stand out along with your eye for a composition.
Favourites, plus comments: (They're all so good, these ones just stood out for me, a totally personal thing.)
I hope my comments don't just sound like descriptions, they are meant to be the special aspects that stood out to me.
#5, I liked the light across the fgnd snow in contrast with the shadowed mts, and of course the rising sun in shot. Really striking, (but I wish you could have avoided the lower branches...I bet you did too!)
#16, I loved the arrangement with the curve of the bay backed by the mountains, and the dawn light in the sky with everything on the ground still in the blue night light and house and street lights on.
#18, That pink cloud and light on the mountain, with the same compo comments as above...so lovely.
(Fascinated by the strength of the moire on the central roof in # 29 and 30!)
#31 Love the contrast between the warm lights of the houses and the lowering grey clouds and mountains above.
#34, That large red building just catching the first light against the unlit grey bckgnd. Very strong image
#38, So striking with that yellow sky, (despite comment above on saturation.)
#44, Great use of fgnd lead in with wide angle with all those ice floes to the mountains in almost monochrome.
My top three, in no particular order, would be:
#37,That wide landscape with the distant red building perfectly positioned with the blue shadowed mountains and the gold/blue in the sky reflected in such an area of foreground.
#41, The pastel shades all around the dark red hut, with snowy roof and white edges.
#49, The composition of the dark rock in its pool with all those sand patterns contrasting with the distant mountains almost disappearing in the mist.
EDIT: I'm adding # 11 to my list of favourites, as going backwards and forwards through them to comment, it also stands out to me for lovely contrast in light and shade, and the feel of menace of those towering cliffs to the vulnerable boat, (though no one else has yet picked it out!)

Maybe pick a couple of "most important" spots and get the light perfect in those, but be more flexible for the rest?
