Hi there,

Got up nice and early this morning to go out to the Edithvale wetlands to get some bird photos... Was a little dissapointed as a lot of the wetlands were inaccessable due to re-habilitation of the landscape

Also it was WAY too foggy to see much at all.

Can anyone tell me what they think of these two? Not sure if the fog ruined them or not. All comments and critique more than welcome

Paul, great pics these birds are always hard to shoot as they are all black but these look nice with the mist.

i think these photos are stunning!
the fog really adds to the mood of these shots
love em!

Paul,

still well worth gettting there early.

The first one is beautiful, love the colours, mist, etc.

Second doesn't have the same punch to it, maybe needs a bit more contrast May also look nicd in B&W

EDIT: did a quick look in B&W, doesn't really work, I think the problem is that clump of grass detracts from the swan.

cheers,

André

Not for few guys on this board

love the shots, my pick is the first one. don't think the fog ruined them at all as someone said above, adds mood to the shot.

Paul,

These are great shots and fog just adds to the mood.

Cheers

I'm glad you guys think they worked.

I know the fog adds atmosphere... I was just worried that they were a little washed out due to the lack of contrast... that and I thought the swans might be a little too dark in the first shot.

Thanks

Paul

Love the fog. Sets the mood. Great shots.

I like it as well. Don't fret about lack of contrast as it adds to the atmosphere.
