HenriAntoine wrote 3 months ago this I missed in the gallery but I voted for. wonderful layers effect from the waves and the platform as a surprise of great beauty. Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago Thanks a lot HenriAntoine. It was one of the moments. The visibility in weather like that is very low, but sometimes it clears up a bit like here. This shot is very little edited, raw conversion, curves and usm adjustment only, if I remember right. The nature made the layers, no effects added. Lars Ursula I Abresch wrote 3 months ago That water almost gives me seasickness just looking at it. Beautiful image! Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago Thanks a lot for the comment. Think I got it about right. And almost monochrome, without reducing any color. Lars Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago Thanks a lot! I like it myself, but had doubts about how it would be received here. Lars Ralf Stelander wrote 3 months ago Great texture and tones to the water and powerful depth in the photo! Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago The wind and the sea did a lot for this. It's almost straight from camera, just slightly adjusted in curves. Thanks a lot for the nice comment. Lars Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago I'm happy so many liked it. Thanks a lot for the nice comment. Lars flo wrote 3 months ago sea is somptuous, undulating, worrying, windy, dark..sensation of depth.. the composition takes part of this atmosphere.. 1000 bravos.. Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago Yes, the sea is all of that for me! I tried to live away from the sea for some years, but it just didn't work. I work at sea, living at a small island, scuba diving, boating, fishing etc. Just can't live without it. And a while ago I found that 90% (at least) of my pictures has something to do with the sea. Thanks a lot for the nice comment. Lars Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago I actually thought this might not pass here. A bit different from other images at OE. Thanks a lot for the nice comment. Lars John Rosca wrote 3 months ago Great image, awesome composition and atmosphere. Still have some doubts about the category. :) Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago Thanks for a nice comment. Was struggling with the category, but found that it was nature that made it what it is. Lars Ilja Hackman wrote 3 months ago You sure got the depth right on this, Lars! :) I love the way the oil platform is all hazy.. VEry good! Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago Thanks for a nice comment. The air is saturated with seawater in conditions like this, making it very hazy. Lars Quinn Reynolds wrote 3 months ago Striking photo and very topical, given the uncertain future of oil... well done. Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago Thanks for a nice comment. Don't know if I believe that oil has a uncertain future though. Seems like the world can't get enough of it.. Lars gerard sexton wrote 3 months ago i was a dissenter on this though i failed at the time to pay much attention to how & from where you took this but coming back you should be applauded for getting such an image in such conditions. i feel seasick just looking at it! well done. Lars Grepstad replied 3 months ago Thanks for a nice comment. The picture is taken from a production ship. And you're right, most of the time the visibility is just too low in those conditions. Think the VR lens saved me a bit on this. Tripod out of question, everything shaking. And the wind tried its best to get me off balance too. Lars |
