Bonsoir,
The calm of the water is barely troubled by a slight shivering that breaks a little reflection of the masts of ships to dock and perfect placed these yellow buoys that break the long perceptive of still water of the harbour. The shades of gray, just tinged with pink in the sky, the sun is out of the fog with the port that still seems sleepy. Very sharp and nice frame.
A beautiful e-card to wish a happy birthday Pierre Frigon
TFS, regards

By curiosity is this a lightvessel boat and a ferry to the right?

Excellent work for Mr Pierre here David! I love your fog reflection work... Are you able to get CLOSER to these old boats?? I love the rusty looks of them, would love a closer look-see! Nice work here and Pierre should be grateful!

Hi David,
Very nice postcard for Pierre!
I like your composition. The buoys in foreground lead us to these boats well aligned in the port and surrounded by a light fog. Excellent acuity on details and rendered of the mood! Congratulations! Annie

I truly love your estuary through your eyes, my friend of many faces. As always this is superb with its colours that are so subtle yet so strong. The composition follows all the rules and makes us appreciate why the rules are there. The buoys in the foreground are just perfect.
A very happy birthday to Pierre on his break. He is under a good sign ;) .
Warmest regards

Hi David,
Those buoys may look small but they are just as important as your main subject because it created a balance in your foreground at the same time anchored your main scene ... perfectly composed! Good application of rule-of-thirds too while the reflections add dimension to the image. Excellent work! tfs
Cheers,
Renier

Hello David
The accent is on serenity conveyed by the long and calm lead-in and the muted colors.
I imagine the deep sound of a fog horn emitted by an approaching ship to complete the mood!!
Thanks for your kind words and steady support since we know each-other. I now take a break for vacation and I'll be happy to hear from you again in about three weeks.
God bless.

Hello David,
So thoughtful of you to dedicate this well composed image to Pierre. The silvery almost monochromatic water and sky seem to blend in, very attractive. Sharp and with good exposure. Best regards, Danilo

This shot, as captured and presented, has a wonderful feel to it. The slight pinkish tone, where one can perceive any color at all, the glass smooth to light ripple and back to smooth surface of the water just adds also to the sense of the whole scene.
Thanks for the view,
Wilt

great color in the boats. the water looks nice, so calm. unique way of framing, with the shadow on two sides the frame is very 3D. great look.

ps...on your profile page your "if only" is wonderful. wish tl could post that on the homepage.

Hi David,

That lack of wind is indeed very important - no only if you try to sail, but this weekend we had so much wind that it would have been pointless on many occassions to use a tripod.
For me to get this effect on water it takes much more then 1/250 sec. to smooth the surface out ^-^.
Lovely atmosphere and of course a fitting dedication for Pierre.

Hello David


Beautiful look of the wharf
I like the atmosphere half that in fog.
He also transmits me a lot of peace, nor it seems those
nervous port with movement of trucks and containers.
Great composition. Very beautiful mood.
Congratulations

Such a calm on the water and making this capture so peaceful. I like your pov in this great composition of allowing more water space in FG even in dim light condition.

Hello David,

I am always amazed at the interest and variety that can be produced from seaside fog!
This shot has the feeling of two which have been ingeniously combined. The top third, which is full of large images merging into the subtle mist, is perfectly balanced by the lower two-thirds which are smooth, calm and resemble a painting undertaken on wet paper.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

I am sure Pierre appreciated this, even if it was late. He really is a very nice and funny guy (met him just a few days before his bday). Seems to enjoy comedy: his bday outing was the 'Just for Laughs Festival' in Montreal (not far from where we were staying at that time)....
Cheers
