it reminds me of folon

so do i.

He looks like he's angry at the ocean and is going to beat it! Love the tone.

Love this one and yesterday’s: have you got more to come in this vein...?

I'm sure he 's gonna catch a whale (or a pinguin ;-)
Nice one, looks like the beginning of a vintage b&w movie..

It doesn't really apply to this picture. But, how do you ask people for permission to photograph them? Or do you just take the picture?

Interesting but the foreground doesn't connect to the fisherman to me, might be better with a lot of the bottom cropped off. I know it's hard to get rid of that nice water relection tho.

Looks like it could be a movie poster.

sara: you forgot to say whether you thought that was a good thing or a bad thing ;-)

Arthur: I have a few more, that aren't entirely dissimilar.

Jacob: if the person is going to be recognisable, and if possible, I do ask.

photoburner: maybe, but I'm not all that keen on substantial cropping.

Maybe too much foreground? Too much blur in the reflection, perchance?

Makes me feel like taking a quiet walk on the beach.

I love the color of this.

Crop it.

I like it too. I think I might like it even more in a 2x1 crop (just the top half), but the lightplay on the water at the bottom is worthwhile too... Oh, looks like I'm not the first to say this :)

I like the color of the shot and the water is so peaceful. I think you captured a great moment.

it's a good thing of course! it's like a dream =)

btw, was it your intention?

Excellent tones in this beautiful action shot. Captured right on time.

Lovely tones and the action tells a story

Dont think it needs a crop - composition works beautifully. Like the tone, and love the movement in JR Hartley's tackle!

The Fisherman has an enormous right foot..............which is nice

This shot doesn't strike my senses as do many c h r o m a s i a shots. What I still appreciate about the shot is its warmth and expansiveness. I fail completely to understand the suggestions of a tighter crop. I believe the affect would be lost interest rather than tightened. Contrast a simple sillouette to man in nature. This capture is the more complex and artful presentation.

Thanks everyone.

sara: no, it wasn't intentional.

As for the crop: yes, it would have worked that way, but I also like this version.

I think it's a great shot David. The tone really adds to the overall picture and I think the crop is perfect.

Very nice composition

Your captures are very nice!!!!! congratulations and great job..
Only question... what is it name this template of your photoblog.
