Sunset Gathering

by davidstorm

On the front Helipad Deck of the Adventure of the Seas Cruise Ship, some young people gather to watch the sun go down and to make a composition for my K-01!

Super composition and the letter really leads the eye into shot.

My thoughts too, Stephen.

That was a nice cruise, I'm betting.

You got it in one Mac, too nice in fact as it is pretty hard to adjust back to normal life after 2 weeks like this!

Thank you for the comment and to Stephen too.

Cheers

Nice... slow enough shutter speed to catch hair and body movement for some, but not all... which is a good thing...

That's a cool picture. A low perspective is important for the lead in and it works so well. Great timing with the light. Can't work out whether sliding the fill slider to the right would work. But you probably tried that already and found "maybe not". Because that's the way you roll. Chilled. (Also challenges the traditional view of cruises... go sell it to some cruise companies).

Just realized that I commented on that lovely misty morning Gibraltar-without-the-lets-drop-blocks-in-the-sea-gosh-thats-a-big-queue-at-the-checkpoint photo as well. Both are great and looks like a nice holiday with some great holiday photos.

A great advert for a cruise, great POV.

Strange that the benches are obstructions for any helo movements! It all makes a great shot though!
