Aug 1, 2010		     The northern lighting adds such purity to the colours, giving a pristine look to the scenery. It really makes the details stand out.

Jul 31, 2010		     Thanks for the nice comments. Mepo: I tried to clone off the signs of Finland and Helsinki.

Jul 30, 2010		     I think I would have preferred just the first boat in the image but certainly on theme and a contender for my top ten. Overall, the image seems a little "soft" which may be a reflection of the full zoom.

Jul 30, 2010		     Once again I find myself drawn to your entries. The composition and the lighting made me think of you. Then, while trying to find where the paddle steamer docks to find out where you took this photo, I came across a photo of the Klippan summer restaurant - your 5th place photo in Challenge 78. So I had my confirmation - my first guess was correct! :-) Right on theme as usual - ferry boats full of tourists. I also like the way you left space in front of the boats for them to sail into. The little cottage on the island helps set the tourist mood. After looking at all the other entries, it still ends up as my #1. It not only epitomizes the tourism theme but shows a happy, sunny side of the subject.

Jul 30, 2010		     That's not bad at all for 486mm focal length. STill got good detail everywhere.

I wonder about cropping some of the water off the bottom.
