 My very first submission to DPChallenge since receiving my first digital camera two days ago! Woohoo!

Picture taken in RGB and transformed to sepia using DPChallenge sepia tutorial. Then resized and sharpened a bit. I also cropped tight against the right shanty to remove a powerline and cropped some off the bottom to remove the tail of a modern outboard motor that appeared in the foreground.

Beautiful. Love the sepia. I have several shots of this same little building. It was so cute. At least you didn't have to battle the fog! ;-)

Hey bro, great first entry. Totally love the tones of the shot and the seagull really adds some punch to the shot, even though its tiny in the scheme of things. Super composition. Keep up the good work.

Your little bro, Jacko.

Wow! 47th out of the lot! My goal was to finish within the top 50%. Being a numbers guy, I had to calculate it... I'm in the top 19%. Double woohoo!

Thanks for the votes and the comments!

This shot would've failed (IMO) without the sepia, but it is a success with the sepia. Great composition.
