Hi Doyle I 'Thank You' for your kind comments and LOVE your wonderful tips on making this and more better images..( sorry that sounds sort of like bad englsih -lol!!)
You know what I mean tho ....(?)
Yes You are right it is just a round screw on polorizing filter.... and I value your ideas as I always have.... I don't know about a Hoya + holder yet - ha!! but always glad to know there are 2 kinds :))
Ohhhhh and I am glad You like the song --- ha!!!!
Kind Regards my friend,
Michele~

Nice shot and I guess I have to say 'Thanks' for getting that song stuck in my head! LoL.
The polarizing filter (I am assuming) is a spherical - screw on and not a squared Hoya + holder? Note that there are two kinds . . . usually . . . you can rotate the filter without unscrewing it . . . as the angle does make a difference. Nicely done but with the detail as silhouetted as it is . . . your solar flare at a higher F/stop might have done you better as a series of rays. (Just a thought on how to improve an otherwise very well done shot).
Regards always,
Doyle I <~~~~~

Hi John ,
You are right about the silhouettes in the middle part...with a 5.6 aperture I cannot get a good quality for that I checked.....
I was trying several different settings but this one came out best ...just not exactly right :))
Good point John and I thank you for making this point or I will never get better :)))
I love the constructive critiques you give :))
Cheers my friend,

Thank YOU so much dear Annemette .... I agree the song is VERY catchy ..as well as melancohlic and I am so glad you also think it goes with the image...
Did You know it was a movie here in the US as well (?)... a very good movie ... The song played in it a lot..
I just got home from working - Oh my gosh until our 'Labor Day week-end ' it is a killer of activity but just one more week and it wil end :)) I am not as fast nor do I care for the crowds as much as I used to , BUT the $$$$ I still like :)) LOL!!
X-tra for camera supplies & a new zoom lens maybe , Yahoo !!!!!!!!!
Warm Hugs to You my Dear,

Nice, pretty dramatic that blue color Michele... I like how the sand at the foreground viewed!
ok...at the middle area there are not so well in quality the silhouettes, but that is something minor that also could be because of the sharpness of the upload page of the site...
good one dear!
Be well!

Hi Michele, I guess I was hasty by blurting out an immediate correction when maore analyzing would be more helpful. The important thing about using polarizers is to use the correct angle to the sun. I can't give you all the answers in a few sentenses so I would suggest that you go to a good camera store and pickup an instruction sheet which will give you all of the correct info. Good luck. BILL

Sea of love is a song that I adore, MIchele! I heard it maybe two years ago and I´ve been thinking of it ever since. There is something melancholic about that song and also about this seascape and the people that seem to enjoy the last light and warmth of the summer.
Warm hugs
Annemette

Hi Bill,
I do appreciate any and all help I can get ...especially from You BUT believe it or not I was using a polorizing filter just shooting straight into the sun...(??)) Maybe I needed a stronger one ?

Hi Michele, I like the composition of this photo but I feel that it needs some brightening up by the use of a polarizing filter. This would darken the blue sky and toned down some of the reflection on the water. Just a suggestion. BILL NAGY
