Well, yes, but that was the whole idea of high ikey. "High key photography is a style of photography that uses unusually bright lighting to reduce or completely blow out dark shadows in the image."

This photo has accomplished that; this is a good example of a high-key photo. I would, however, do a crop to eliminate the distracting far shore, cropping to the point just below [eliminating] the dark line upper right. Additionally, I would bring in the left side about a quarter. Doing so we have the dark lines and the line of the boat. The lower right rocks are the solid contrasting anchor for the photo, but I would clone out the top rock lump. Removing that lump terminates the rocks vs having them continue and not allowing us to see the rest.

Crop is one of the most valuable tools that we have... it brings the story to a brief but clear statement.

Thanks for looking and the suggestions. Cropping can sometimes be so subjective but I will certainly go back and look into your ideas.

I like the composition and minimalist feeling very much! There are textures and details - such as the boat's reflection and the floating grasses/seaweed - thad add to the appeal. Reducing the brightness on my monitor just a skosh made it more comfortable to view the whitest areas.


Thank you, Linda. I will work on the brighter area.

Nice!

(Where pray tell is Pumpkin Island?)


It is off the coast of Little Deer Isle in Maine. This pic was taken from my IPhone on a cloudy evening. I was there for a more dramatic sunset and have other images on my camera but haven’t had time to process them yet.

The technical aspects of the lighting are beyond me but the result is captivating.
