Dominick- Beautiful black and white of this fabulous picture of dad and the boys enjoying a walk by the water. Love the sharpness of the picture and the sun giving it a glow as it peeks though the clouds. Remarkable silouettes of the dad, the boys, and the people on the pier. The pier, the water, the shiny beach and even some reflections all well featured with fabulous definitions.
Sensational work #6474512

Dennis Gay September 21, 2008

G'day Dominick,

This is a truly fantastic photograph!
It lends itself to B&W extremely well, the subject is very interesting and has a good story to tell, the composition is perfect, the contrast is striking and the tonal range very good indeed.
A good focus and use of depth of field has ensured a nice clear, sharp silhouette and quite discernible detail throughout.

Great work that man!
