forever..., a photo from Oregon, West

Photographer's Note

Feeling blue today...
Cannon Beach, Oregon

How much does a man live, after all?
Does he live for a thousand days, or one only?
For a week, or for several centuries?
How long does a man spend dying?
What does it mean to say "forever"?

- Pablo Neruda

Beautiful composition with that palette of soft colours. However, the sky is in the need of a finer finish, I'd say.

Oh I know this place. Those clouds look so low! I'm all for these empty spaces, and this is very spacious. It might be improved with just a bit more sharpness- the clouds in particular, but it's hard to tell. That bike just floats in the middle of this compo. Good work!

Hello Aysegul,

The soft texture of the clouds is very nice. The light works fine to create a peaceful and calm effect. Good exposure and placement of the bike to create a fine focsal point under the cloudy sky. A dramatic effect indeed. Thanks.

Aysegul,
I love this image of solitude, that show the grandness of nature with big open sea and expansive of the sky. Great light reflecting from the sea. I like the silhoutte of the person on a bike on this very deserted beach. Very refreshing and pleasant. Thank you for taking us outdoor.

Hi Aysegul, interesting positioning of the subject. The fact that you have placed the biker below the horizon line creates a very pleasing feel, it adds a sense of romanticism, nostalgia perhaps... also like the way the cloud helps create a sense of 3D, giving me the impression of being there. Excellent capture,
Cheers,
Enrique

Hello,

I like this view for the space feeling we got in looking it. This feeling is increased by the loneliness of the biker alone on this wide beach in the middle of the clouds and sands.
I would have prefer to have the biker just a little more on the right but it is a detail; the photo is strong enough like this.

Yves.
