Nice shot with good POV. Strong colours. The polariser has done its work well.
Unfortunately I suspect the polariser is also the cause of the darkening (vignetting) of the corners. That is always a potential problem with ultra wide angle lenses. You may be able to avoid it by using slim filters but I believe they can be expensive.

Hola Tan. Quite a nice place, you were lucky to find it empty. About the lenght, I heard is usual. I love the effect of the polarizer on the clouds, and the sense of freedom. A great place to swimm, or so I think.

Hi Tan.
I love the effect of polarisers in skies and water, mainly when the picture is taken in paradise like this one.
Vignetting used to appear in lower quality wide-angle lenses, but not so obvious as in your picture. I´m pretty sure the problem is the filter and not the lens.
Keep on shooting with your 10-22!

Hi Captain,
You get difficult to follow... Oman-Alaska-Hawaii, hot-cold-hot, are you trying to burn your miles before they get invalid ?
Maybe not the most adventurous compo, but certainly efficient, with excellent light and clarity to be seen in the water. Good polarization but you can see on the sides it is less attractive at this UGA than on the middle focals, and your pola must be a thick one to produce this vignetting, which one did you get ?
Last but not least, congratulations for having bought a fine lens ;-))
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

Hi Tan!

Wow, what a shot! Beautiful colors and nice perspective, I wish I could swim in this water :)

Hi Tan
Looks like you are enjoying some nice spring weather on your travels! Great use of your super wide angle lens, a very good purchase ;-) As for the vignetting, yes, I get the same when I use a polariser. I guess the wide angle is just so wide that even the few mm of filter obstruct. It is possible to get extra thin polarisers which are supposed to avoid this but haven't looked into. Normally I just avoid shooting at 10mm or crop afterwards. As for the shot, what a lovely classic view. The water is just so inviting and the colours and clarity are so crisp.
Regards, Susanna

Hello Tan, it's amazing to see this beautiful beach deserted. It's a shame that it is so because of tragic circumstances. I love the crystal clear water and the distant mountains, also the beautiful clouds that always seem to grace your photos.

Tan that 10-22 mm capture has confirmed to me that this is the next lens on my list to buy. I can see all sorts of possibilities with the wide angle range. Excellent color with the polarizer. I see a little dark edges on the corners. Is that because the filter does not quite fit with this lens? Good work..I love it!

veronika (6058) 2006-05-05 6:11

Oh no really is so empty?? I should be very fast to get there.. :)
Perfect clear smooth beautiful image Tan,
love it!

Hello Tan
Very nice image. Good delicate colours of the water and nice-shaped clouds. I like it.
Greetings from Slupsk ;)

Hi Tan,
A beautiful wide angle picture. DoF is excellent and low clouds are very impressive. Very well done!

Thanks,
Marek

Hi Tan

Yes I know this problem due to filters - specially two filters at the same time gives me problems.

I like the lines of this beach and the different levels and water and surfaces - thanks for this lovely view.

Hello Tan,
with such a lens you need a slim polarizer filter. What you see is most probably part of a thick filter rather than part of the lenshood. As far as I can say this is a nice picture and apart from the bad luck with the filter a good one, but compared to what you posted as scans from the Fuji slides there is a world between digital and film.
For landscape wideangles there is still no alternative to film, not in lens and not in filter effect quality.

Salut Tan,
Je découvre ta galerie.
Beaucoup de pays visités c'est impressionnant!
J'ai commencé par les USA, et je découvre cette photo splendide d'une qualité impressionnante.
On s'y croirait, on a presque les pieds dans l'eau!
Bravo et à bientôt
Vincent
