New Years Day, Morecambe

[Martyn]

Just as the sun went down there was a break in the cloud and a brief respite from the rain

Good set with some very colourful boats, Martyn, and you have got a wow sky in 2, 4 and 5...very dramatic!

 

The 1st one is my favorite though, there is an appealing sadness about it that works for me. It just goes to show how light and different angles can greatly affect an image

[ChrisLumix]

They are all good in their own ways, but my favourites are the first two. #2 and #4 are very similar but I much prefer the rear 3/4 view of the red boat in #2 to the side on view in #4. I particularly like the way you have the main landscape crammed into the top strip of #1, leaving that big empty mud flat with what looks like mysterious footprints on.

What a superb set, there's not one I don't like. Utterly beautiful, all of them

[Leon]

like them all but no2 (in my opinion) swing round to leavr the buildings out of the horizon?

A great set, Martyn the first image is just lovely - the composition and the processing you've given it are excellent.

Lovely set Martyn...Thank God for a bit of colour. I find it hard to pick one over the rest in this set.

[Martyn]

Thank you, you are all too kind! I think I'll be photographing these boats as long as they (and myself) are around. When I was taking these I was thinking of Bill Allsopp's new year picture, guess I'll have to keep watching and waiting!

[bugmeister]

All excellent and my favourite is the wide view of the last one. the boats looking like little toys under that big sky

It has all been said Martyn..........a wonderful set.

Really good set Martyn, I think you are finding your forte with landscapes!

[Brian]

One of the best POWs that I have seen in my short stay. Lovely!!!!

[Black Pearl]

Just realised I never left a comment.

 

Brilliant photography, exquisite processing, interesting subject and great light all add up to one of the best posts I've seen on the forum.

Shot three (the tower) for me is the stand out image - absolutely superb!

[JohnP]

I like all the boat shots they are beautiful, No3 doesn't do much for me... I can't put my finger on why, perhaps it just looks a bit cold. No's 2, 4 & 5 have the most WOW factor.

What a beautiful set of images,I would happily have a few of them on my wall
