Artist's Comments

Taken from our cabin in Steigen, northern Norway. I woke up pretty early (like 4 AM) and saw this.

What can i say? When I came across this, I immediately knew I had to say something more than just "Nice shot" and a +Fav.

The shot is brilliantly composed, no fancy rule of thirds, no special settings or special cameras (although I can't consider the 5DMK2 a normal camera either xD); just a sharing of how beautiful the morning was for the artist. This is one of those shots that go in my book as "it just works darn it!"

The main thing that piqued me in this picture was the way the blues from the top transited to orange at the very bottom. Capturing warm and cool colors in a single frame is something I hope to be able to achieve one day.

Perhaps the only thing I can flaw is that the title does no justice to the photo. Then again, a picture paints a thousand words; I don't think the artist could fit everything that was felt and experienced at that point of time into the title.

This a real eye opener you've captured here. From the thumb the colour jumped out at me, then when I opened it full size the detail in the sky really caught my eye!

I'm not liking the house in the corner down the right corner, very distracting from the beautiful view. Another thing that concerns me is the reflection in the glass window, it make's it look like the window is moving or out of focus. For the impact of this I think it needs to look as static as possible. I would have also moved forward and little and got rid of the out of focus window frame down the bottom left third, that's always annoying having an out of focus object in a photo that isn't adding anything to the shot! Apart from that I love the perspective and think the shot has a lot of potential.
