Advertisement Posted December 29, 2006 Posted December 29, 2006 Hi jonoslack, Take a look here The Boy, The Dog, the Sea and the M8. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
stuny Posted December 29, 2006 Share #2 Posted December 29, 2006 Jonathan - More evidence to show the nay-sayers that the M8 is a most serious camera in the hands of a talented photographer. Beautiful composition with the boy and dog perfectly placed, the dog heading in just the correct direction (slightly to the left), and with the horizon framed by the rocks, making the horizon seem straighter than it would otherwise seem (straighter than straight). Lovely light, details and subtle colors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dynamic range was a bit of a challenge in these shots, but as you say, the M8 comes up with the goods in spades if you use a little care. Thanks again Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve kessel Posted December 29, 2006 Share #4 Posted December 29, 2006 terrific combination of dramatic light and action - brilliant photo, well done Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinop Posted December 29, 2006 Share #5 Posted December 29, 2006 The subject matter, framing, DOF(depth and breadth) and lighting are very appealing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biglouis Posted December 29, 2006 Share #6 Posted December 29, 2006 Beautiful colours and toning. The first shot on an M8 which actually makes me think it is worth owning. Probably down to your skill. LouisB Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

billh Posted December 29, 2006 Share #9 Posted December 29, 2006 Wow! That is one beautiful photograph of what for me is an especially appealing subject. You’ve captured one of the best moments life has to offer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
billh Posted December 29, 2006 Share #10 Posted December 29, 2006 A quick look at your website shows this quality is the norm for you. The Cornwall tourist bureau should hire you - this makes me want to come visit! http://www.slack.co.uk/Cornwall/Cornwall2006/2006_08_Cornwall/large-15.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

square_one Posted December 30, 2006 Share #13 Posted December 30, 2006 Boy Jonathan, you nailed this one. The scene just explodes around your two perfectly-caught centerpieces like ... like ... no words really! Superb. And with your new digital instant-feedback M8 you knew it right then! How unfair to us filmaholics! Bruce Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably down to your skill. LouisB HI Louis More likely down to luck I'd say! Still, the M8 is worth owning - buy one immediately!

Untitled Web Gallery - _2004773 HI Bill Thank you! that one you've linked is in Trevaylor woods outside Penzance - I think the word Bosky was invented to describe it! I keep trying to persuade my wife to move back down here (I was brought up in StIves, but now live in East Anglia). If you saw it now with 50mph winds mist and rain squalls you wouldn't be quite so keen! Happy New Year Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rick_dykstra Posted January 6, 2007 Share #19 Posted January 6, 2007 Nice shot, indeed. It deserves to be up on the wall - 20 x 30. But next time could you get it with the ball just a little above the horizon please. Regards, Rick. Welcome, dear visitor!
