Critique Welcomed The Empty Marina...

Outside our window...

On holiday, Glenn? This is beautiful! It could only be improved by the addition of a yellow rubber duck. But otherwise, it is near perfect

Nope...it's outside our place Rob. I'll search for a yellow rubber duck big enough. Thank you!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Well, that's a fine view to have outside your house. Lucky man.

Don't I know it...believe me...

the horizon looks tilted to me. great tones. is that a satellite dish on the dock?

Tilted...nope...obstacle illusion...yup. And yes...they are closing the place over the winter/spring for renovation. Many of the boats that docked were here year around.

It does have a rather forlorn look to it. I do find the tones a bit dense though, although they add to the mood. Was that your intention Glenn?

Yes Pete...it was very early and almost completely black...except where the city lights reflected on the water.

Thats a room with a view and a nice image! Should it be rotated a touch, as the optical illusion is telling me its tilted IMO,

 

[Brian Moore]

That's a nice shot, Glenn. It would be hard to know what it is without your description. I like how some of the water reflects light brightly whereas the rest seems murky. Unlike a couple of others, I don't see it as tilted. (And is that in fact a satellite dish down there as Beth pointed out?)

Well I guess it could be rotated...but the camera was sitting flat on our window sill. I guess I need to see if the building is level.

Thanks Brian...I just checked... the window sill is level. And yes it's a satellite dish. It is pretty common here in the Navy Yard for people to live on their boats year round. This marina is trying to rebuild so the boats have moved to other places. I guess they forgot the dish?
