Pic of the Day #596

May 7, 2008

As with all good things, our visit to couldn’t last, and after a couple of days visiting my grandparents Grace and I had to pack up and head back to the mainland.

Where was this taken?

As the ferry was preparing to depart, I was sprinting all over the deck, trying to get photos of a handful of things before the opportunities slipped away. One such thing was the churning water around the boat, which I think came out best in this shot. In particular, I love the interplay of dark and light water colour tones (blue and aqua); the contrast is also good.

Edit-wise, there wasn’t much I needed to do for this shot; a bit of correction and some adjustments to the blue complemented the already impressive effects of the calibration/Punch preset. I like a shot like that: quick to edit, and visually pleasing at the end of it.
