Was on a trip with the camera club last weekend shooting mostly seascapes in the most northerly tip of Ireland.
Anyway got a couple of nice shots, but one that I personally quite like has been commented on, both on a couple of sites and also verbally. Its a shot that I changed to black and white as it just looked better to me that way.
Although I havent really got any negative feedback about it(they are all so polite!) I did get numerous comments saying that shooting a seascape in black and white was unusual or they would never shoot one in black and white.
I would love some feedback and thoughts here about the photo in general, not just the black and white aspect of it.
Does the composition look good? I purposely didnt follow the rule of thirds as I wanted more of a mirrored effect with the reflection. Would you shoot a similar subject in black and white?
Thanks in advance.
