Critique Welcomed A Tanker Leaving The Harbor...

[Glenn Clabo]

This happens all the time...so I decided to do it in B&W...

 

[Ralph Thornton]

Great shot!

What happens all the time? Is it tankers leaving the harbor, the light in the sky or your photo going black and white?

 

[Pete Askew]

Blimey, that's dramatic. Almost has a slightly solarised look.

Thanks Ralph...and yes.

Man...you are good.

Solarized was my first thought too. I like the look of it very much, Glenn.

(A while back Pete experimented trying to solarize film with the application of light during the dev process, a la Man Ray. The results were excellent. You should point Glenn to those images @Pete Askew.)

Thanks @Pete Askew for posting the links to your excellent solarized images. It was great to re-read my comments about your dust.

 

[Glenn Clabo]

Once again...Thank you Pete. (and Brian) Great read. How do you put up with that Brian dude? Dust? Geez.
I had an idea of what I was looking for...and just slogged away. I'm really (and I mean really) just trying to create what my mind sees. This new fangled electronical stuff is fun AND frustrating. In some ways standing in the red/darkness wasting paper and chems came more natural. But...I do remember the first time I tasted single malt...so I am willing to learn.

 

[Brian Moore]

Did someone mention single malt,...?

Oooooh. I've never had that one. Looks delightful!
