Left early for work this morning in the hopes of getting some good fog shots. Two dogs playing in the sea. C&C welcomed. Click for larger version.

fantastic use of empty space

well done

A rather minimalist shot... but still quite pleasant. I like it a lot.

There will be a lot who do not like this but I really do. A slightly tighter crop may have been better.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Normally i tell people to get in close to your subject, but what you've done here works fantastically.

Well done, great image.

I like the idea, I am a big fan of empty space, but to me the dogs are a bit to small. IMO if you were a little closer it would have worked better.

But 3 points for getting out of bed early in the fog

I think if you had zoomed in on the dogs a bit more you still could have portrayed a sense of space and also shown more detail in the dogs. I however like the fact that you tried something different.

This is a great example of the power of negative space. It really needs to be printed nice and large so some of its impact is lost here at the smaller image size. Well done.

Love the sbtle tonal gradations. Very nice.
cheers

When I first looked at this I thought the dogs are too small. I do, however, agree with Peter's comments about making a large print out of it - that would make it work very well. I think for an on screen image you do need to crop it tighter.

I love this photo - beautiful empty space and a simple story.

Well done.

The more I look at this photo, the more I like it. It doesn't need any changes, just print it large, as suggested.
