Re: top of the world
Works for me - I like the dark sharpness of the foreground contrasting with the lightness of the distance.
Its the sort of shot I can't get right (yet).

Re: top of the world
I am struggling with this impressive view, I feel that the impact and sense of scale isn't there. Could it be the rather uniform, bright light?

Re: top of the world
What would you like the image to be? It looks to me that it could be an old opencast mine and, if it is, then some sort of grittiness is called for. Perhaps try some hefty cropping like removing the sky and some off the right hand side and then see what happens.

Re: top of the world
Norman, I am certain it is a volcanic crater.

Re: top of the world
it's a crater. i've noticed it has a halo around the rim due to jpg in-camera sharpening.

Re: top of the world
Works for me too Reg. I've never been there but all the photo's I've seen give me the impression that it's not the most photogenic of islands.

Re: top of the world
