Challenge:Repetition (Classic Editing) Camera:Canon EOS-10D Location: Manhattan Beach, CA Date: Aug 31, 2003 Aperture: f/22 ISO: 100 Shutter: 1/45 Date Uploaded: Aug 31, 2003
I dunno, I kinda find that big white scrape in the foreground a bit too dominant and distracting...maybe try cropping in a row? Absolutely brilliant shot though. I want to be there...atleast the way you captured it. One of those wonderful photos that you can almost feel and hear.
wow - great shot - the composition couldn't be better IMO:) Love the natural coloring and the blue of the water - looks like you took this at the perfect time of day. Excellent job an definately meets challenge. very high score:)
Very pleasing and strong perspective shot with wave and white-caps breaking up the static of the dominant structure. The two (flanking) effective arches in the foreground provide a nice counter balance to the rectangular theme.
I question the DOF chosen for this shot. While it works well to bring out the textures of the foremost columns, I regret not being able to enjoy the breakers in their full and crisp glory. A larger or more deliberately choice, IMO, could highlight the spray or help distinguish the sky from the horizon.
Despite this, it remains one of my favourite shots in this challenge.
I try to forget my bias for "beach photos" when I vote, but I think this is a great photo! Perfect framing, and I love the great diagonal shadowing and the action of the water at the end. May have tried to brighten this a bit, and saturated a touch, but overall I really like it. Congratulations!
This piece is very interesting. The columns in the pier leads your eyes straight back and you get a nice wave coming in. It's like a feast for the eyes. The blues in the sky also help . Some beautiful shadows and reflections on the pier columns.
