Good evening.I'm currently trying out a few things regarding photos of this embankment, so I'd like to hear from you.It's mainly about the aspect ratio, but the version without clouds was finished at 64:25.This time I took some photos with clouds and tried various aspect ratios, but I don't want to submit them all for review, so I'd be happy to hear your opinions
From my point of view, 16:9 is a good format, as many monitors can display the photo in full size.
Greetings
Udo
Hello,
Welcome to our forum. I agree with my friend Udo. The 16:9 seems to fit the best to the image. It is also quite preferred nowadays. The last one looks not as interesting and is also not much appealing to me. You did a good job to use the 3/2 proportion for the clouds. I wish you good light...Cicek
Hello mmmmmm13
Thank you for asking for our opinions on aspect ratio. I'm afraid I'm going to confuse the issue, as I like the 64:25 image with the low horizon and narrow strip of sea with its dark tones.
Good light, Elizabeth
Thank you for your reply.It seems like there are a lot of 16:9 opinions. Personally, I like wide aspect ratios, but I wanted to hear everyone's opinions on the balance with the sky.Dear ElizabethThe best retouching result is 64:25, which is also my preference. Sorry for the discrepancy.Sorry if my English is bad at the end.Thank you.
Hello mmmmmm13,
To confuse you a bit, I'd prefer the 2:1. It feels less tight than the 16:9, the subject is quite long. And it's less of the ultra-panorame, which feels a bit too empty for such a wide format. Extreme wide shots are a good choice it there are things to discover, because we don't see all the photo in one glimpse.
The fact the embankment verticlly ends at exactly the horizo level I see as a flaw i this. Subject sicking out over a horizon are stronger automatically, no matter if we talk about trees, people or for example buildings. I recently chased up a few Ostriches to have them ON the horizon line,not merging into background. Have a look and try to imagine how much less appearance they'd have if the background were the hill I made them run up to.
Something to consider in next compositions maybe.
Best regards,
Mike

Hello.2:1 may be just the right balance. Thank you.To keep the screen simple, I didn't want to show the horizon line superimposed on the embankment, but I guess it's good to show it as well.

Hi,
I meant the opposite, have the embarkment level over the horizon...
Cheers,
Mike
Thank you for your reply.Then I agree. I couldn't shoot any lower, so this was the lowest point.Thank you very much.
