Judge the Picture

Random thought but what do you all think of this picture I made on the computer this afternoon? Anyone have advice for improvements etc...?

Pretty cool. Are you satisfied with the tone? It does bring out the 'fog'.

 

[Abd_Yesua_alMasih]

I am not sure yet and I have tried changing things but this is the version I like the most. Anything else makes the ship stand out and I almost want it to be part of the background and just as much the subject as the fog itself.

 

[Scott Bushey]

In that case, you are making your point.

Excellent...I really like the use of soft color and the subject is also very gratifying.

But one critique...

The fog-boat 'coalescence' has the effect of intensifying the stillness of the overall presentation. It may look just a wee too much like a snapshot.

But other than that I am impressed.

We have talented folk here at PB.

[quote:138c0f1f3f="Steadfast"]'coalescence'[/quote:138c0f1f3f] Sorry I have never taken art as a subject before so what does that word mean... I am a student without a dictionary (an English literature student at that :bs2: ) How do you think I could change the picture into looking more flued? (I think that is the word)
