Nostalgic

Tried to find a vintage look to go with those ugly reeds on the front.
This works well and I even like the reeds, well done.

Those two hays frame the boat in a cool way :)

Outstanding capture :)

I don't mind the reeds, they have some lovely effects in the water there and the ones on the right are beautiful. But that's just me! I like what you've done in the way of treatment and the vignette works well.

This is super Susale! The vintage colours and vignette go together so well, real 60's nostalgia, and the position of the boat with the reed clumps must have taken hours??? ;-)

You did portray the vintage feel, I rather like the weeds/reeds too. Lovely scene overall. I could look at that all day.

Most excellent shot! I think the reeds actually add some interest. I agree with Jani....I love the old time feel of the pix...wonderful tones and capture!

Great scene, the reeds draw your eye to the sailboat:) Your processing choice is always the right one:)

I don't mind the reeds, with putting them in front it gives a lot of depth to your photo. Nice job

@denidouble Thanks Deni, the reed is a matter of taste, I like it in some pics and in some I can´t stand it, it´s all depends on the context it´s potrayed in.

@bristolrose Thank you Kathryn, I´m happy you think so cos that was what I tried to accomplish

@janim Yes I think that is a cool detail too, I rather like those two hays

@jodimuli Thank you Joey, you´re being too kind!



@sturnus Thank you Carol, the reed is a matter of taste and I´m glad you liked the processing

@exidia Hah Fiona, that was pure luck :) Thank you so much for your kind comment, I´m so glad you think it has this 60´s nostalgia, I wasn´t even born at that time but have seen those old pics and tried to accoplish something like that

@sansjuan Thank you Nita, the reed is a matter of taste, in this scene I don´t like it. I´m so glad you like the view, I´m rather used to looking it myself, so I really can´t appreciate it so much anymore, which is a real shame

@nanderson Thank you Nancy, so happy you like. I really tried to find that vintage look.

@valanne Thank you Valerie, glad you think so

@skpinny Thank you SKerstin, I kind of like the mood in this too

@eu4ria1 Thank you Ria, oh you really are spoiling me with your kind words :)

@joyce2013 Thank you Joyce, you´re right it gives certain depth of field into this.

@dreamatrix Thank you, DreaMaTrix, I really tried to find a vintage look.

@lunaksi Thank you Lunaksi, it´s a matter of taste, I suppose I´m very used to those reeds, so they don´t please me but they do bring something into this composition.
