Great capture. And you prove a very important point here. At the end....it's the quality of light that makes or breaks the picture.
Well done
Martin.

It is a great shot. With the white ship grey river and sky it almost seems to be black & white. But then you see the blocks of orange and turquoise.

Great shot at the right moment, would like a little more space at the top and sides or perhaps less water but well done a very striking image.

Lovely colours, John. Great image. Were you in the middle of the river or on the Birkenhead bank?

Damn right it does. A grey day is hard to work with. Great capture. And you prove a very important point here. At the end....it's the quality of light that makes or breaks the picture.

Lovely shot - personally I wouldn't have it so central.

Thanks for the comments guys. I was on the ferry Howard, when the weather is bad on the river you have to get in close.

Just noticed the two wind turbines on the left - behind the stern - I would have cropped those. Isn't there also something about giving things room to move "into"? Or am I totally wrong?- personally I wouldn't have it so central.

A very striking picture. I was with Mike in thinking it had been PPed.

Yeah, me too! Had to look at it for a few seconds before I realised. Great pic!
