Boat man

[Uma Kathyayini]

I was composing this frame early in the morning in havelock island, suddenly I found this boatman sailing into the frame, completing my composition. i am not doing any pp, posting them as clicked. pl let me know when i can go in for pp.

I want to know whether human elements can be included in the landscapes :confused1:

Sharing images here helping me to learn a lot.

I liked the way you have got the boatman through the trees. I felt the bottom area and some part of the top was taking the attention away from the main subject. So I have cropped that. Presently, the image is getting divided into 3 portions and the branch on the left takes the attention away from the centre.
So you could have tried to include less space on the sides.

You can do some basic PP like increasing the contrast, sharpness, colour and vibrance. It would have been good, if the light was better. Let me know what you think.

We try to show the landscapes without humans else we will only see cities and towns. I know that we have 1.21 billion people and if the current scheme of things continues, then we may have a few parks and no wilderness areas. So finding one landscape without human element would be a challenge. :D

I like the image. Mrudul has given one version which works. It looks like two standalone trees. However, I would prefer even more space than the original to give a bit more emphasis on the green leaves at the bottom. At the moment there is a hint of leaves at the bottom. More of those green leaves will enhance the framing.

thanks. I would like to include more of environment along with subject.
