 Took this in Half Moon Bay. I'm sure I'll get a lot of comments about how bad the light and contrast is, but you gotta trust me...I did the BEST I could. It was a foggy day with a foggy sunset, and ver grey light, so it was hard to improve upon. Especially with Basic Editing.
Anyway, I've always loved the idea of the message in a bottle, and now I get to photograoh it. Yay!

Great job! Very nice use of color and perspective. Not extremely interesting however, although pretty. Raising original score from a 4 to a 6.

i wonder how it would look if you could have gotten a little lower perspective.

that's nice...the light in this makes some nice even colours...perhaps composition lets it down a bit
