photograph of a surfer at wrightsville beach--about an hour or so before sunset. This was converted to greyscale and quadtoned to give the sand variations more depth.

Took me awhile to figure out that it was a surfboard and not a girl. :) It doesn't really look like an ocean...maybe get lower to the ground to get some waves and the shadow in frame.
this is a really cool idea. I think if you could have gotten a color cast or tint in it (maybe orange) it would have been more dramatic. I like the three different textures beneath the shadow.
Nice, clear storytelling. Your score is going up with additional viewing. (I am personally biased against B&W). I have to ask, "was this shot that much worse in color?" I could be wrong, but the beach doesn't look like a surfing beach. (too calm, etc.) Pick, pick, pick.......Photo 8 Creativity 7 Shadows 7 total 7
Nice shot! Teach me how to surf? I must warn ya.. I'm a fat bald geek :) I like the strong diagonal composition of your shadow... good work! - jmsetzler
Yes its a shadow alright. Use of the diagonal was good to give it a little more interest. Is this supposed to be on the beach? its hard to tell what else is going on here. Bright light on the left, white spots in your shadow.
