Just for two special people

Seen on a ferry boat tied up alongside a dock (with fairly rough conditions - hence the high shutter speed).

Tech: Captured in raw and adjusted levels, contrast & saturation in raw with PhotoShop CS2, converted to jpg, cloned out a few paint spots and scratches, resized, sharpened, framed and signed

Thanks for looking and for all your critiques, workshops and suggestions. Have a healthy, happy, and safe week.

HAHA! Special people need more comfortable chairs! Nice work here Silke...I wonder who will be sitting here? Nice color to this shot, and this makes you really think, which is what photography is about!

Hello Silke,
I like your wry eye here. I also like the graphical feel to this one, primary colours and a simple elements contribute to an attractive composition.

Hi Silke,

You sure turned 2 plastic chair into a very pleasing composition - glad the chairs were not reserved for you with weather conditions like they were at that moment.

Hi Silke,
Very unique subject you have captured here. I like the colors in this picture. The different shades of red in the seats against the yellow BG and blue floor. If these are the saved for the important people I wonder what the other seats look like. Nice capture.
Regards,
Kevin

I love how people can use their creativity to turn something so simple into a work of art. It reminds me of ISO's work which I enjoy so much. Very nice colors. TFS and have a great day!

Like the composition Silke.
Normally I would think to post this in B/W but
because of the very matching colours it would be
a shame to do so.

I love those 'odd-ball' images, the colours work well of course, so do the lines, I see what you mean about the shutter speed, aahh well, the 'feeling' is there! M, (*_*)
