Rowing, a photo from Surrey, England

Photographer's Note

If you scored something around 50/50 yesterday at yesterday's game , you could be this man!
Going for a bit of exercise at 7:30, before work, before droping the kids at school ; Enjoying the wonderful light of this cold morning ; Being the first to break the mirror; Hearing the click-clack of the mirror of the photographer (or maybe I was the only one to like it...)
For 30 minutes this day, he was living his dream of olympic champion covered in gold.

Hi Nicolas.
A beautiful photo. It looks like a fresh morning(and i'm sure i can smell it as well:) ). The soft light faling on the mist mreally makes it a great shot.

Nice photo, Nicolas.
I like sun rays that hit the fog coming from the river and the composition is well done.
TFS.

I like this series! The mist is wonderful in them, and the light catches it great. An inspiring set of photos to want to get out and shoot the world around you.
Dave.

ces photos meritent bcp mieux... Enfin, c'est du très bon boulot, nico! j'aime cette quasi immobilisme de l'eau , du rameur et cette brume matinale juste rasée par les premiers rayons du soleil...

Bien vu
Eric

Bonsoir Nicolas
Cette photo a beaucoup de charme de par sa chaude lumière rasante et la brume légère qui baigne le tout.
Le geste du rameur est saisi au bon moment et le glissement du skiff est bien perceptible.
Amitiés
Henry

Fantastique ambiance matinale. La lumière a son apogée :)

This is a great shot - a perfect shot it would have been an instant later, when the man and the tree would not form a line. I´ll post a workshop to show what I mean, but it is not possible to create the photo in PS like it would have been, if taken in the right moment.
Regards
Elvira
