Aron, nice image, it certinly has impact. I don't think you can look and think what next... But as for film being "better" than digital, nothing is so cut and dry. Lots depend on what kind of film camera and what kind of digital camera...

Gustavo, I do have some regular film work but not much. Film is too expensive to make it practical for me. I am in the learning stage and Digital allows me to really take a lot of pictures, experiment with composition/creativity.
I do see that film quality is still superior to Digital. Expecially in dynamic range/contrast. I also see the day (in the near future) when digital will clearly be superior to film. But people will still take pictures on film, just because it?s fun to do and it?s the analog counterpart to digital media (much like cd?s vs. records, wordprocessors vs. typewritters, etc..) I will certainly keep my film camera around.
Anyways sorry for the long commentary. I will be posting some of my film work in the next few days.

Great picture, have you tried traditional photography instead of digital? if so can you show us some work with film?
Congrats.

Welcome to Usefilm.
This is beautiful Aaron. The contrast is perfect. But you could crop the right edge, so the one cannot see that white line. I would also be happy to see the original colour pic.
I am looking forward to seeing more of you arts.
Keep on with the same spirit

I usually don't expect to much from b&w seascapes. Geez...I guess I will have to change that outlook! Great tones and comp here. It really works for me! Nice work.

Thanks for everyone's comments. I am glad people like this pic, it's one of my favorites. I had thought about placing the sun more in the left 1/3 of the composition to avoid a static feel, but I think the rough waves and contrast override that feeling.
I really like the idea of this webpage. Some of the advice I have read in general has definitely made me a better photographer.
thanks,
Aaron

Don't you hate when that happens. "Now! Why now?" you say to yourself. Hope she forgave you, but with that title, who knows. In any case, this is a brilliant photograph and a wonderful first post. Welcome aboard.

This is simply amazing!!! Great Shot!!! The only thing I would do is crop the right side where you can see the edge of the photo!!

I have spent hours on this site looking at everyone?s photos. This is my first image posting to this board, I would appreciate any tips/comments.
This photo was taken just before a storm on a beach near Scheveningen. I was having dinner in a cafe with my beautiful fiancé when I saw this sunset outside. I had to run out on dinner and take several exposures.
