[QUOTE="panos_adgr, post: 3222, member: 12"] [B]The horizon in the first photo is straight! I downloaded the image and loaded it in ACR and viewed it with the grid overlay. There is a slight tilt of 0.1 degree which is unnoticeable. You are clearly deceived by the angle of the sand from the hills to the sea. [/B] As for the critique we have to have always in mind the following things before we critique somebody's photo and in this case jacks. 1. Personal Perception 2. Artist's Personal Point Of View 3. Artist's Artistic approach and interpretation of the scene he/she captures 4. We were ALL absent at the time of shooting. 5. Artistic critique must me made as less subjectively as possible. There is no point in critique of kind, ''I would do this or that'' or critiquing somebody's effort / work in our personal view like It looks too much like this or that. Go and get the photo for yourself as you want to capture it.... We have to try to understand the artist's pov. Jack had a wonderful landscape in front of him with nice bright light and he wanted as he said to saturate more the photo. This is usually what most of the people try to do when they look at a beautiful scene, feeling amazed with positive feelings and try to represent it in a photo. The most mainstream way is colour saturation. I like very much Jacks approach and effort to express what, at least I as a viewer, perceive from his work. The only comments I would do with respect to his effort, are; A lower horizon that would make the sand /sea point to reach the low right angle would probably work better with sand (being part of the negative space) to attract less viewer attention. The use of Curves might give a better result in contrast than the most aggressive dehaze or similar tools of other apps. The above comments are my own point of view and only. Nice work [USER=1]@Jack[/USER] [/QUOTE]
