Nice capture. I like the little details, such as the seagull and the people on the road. Only wish everything wasn't so parallel. Still a pleasing image with some nice post-processing.
personally the softness of the image just doenst do it for me... it took me a minute to find 'the picnic' as its not exactly the main subject, the eye goes right to the bird.. the vehicles arent very pleasing to the eye.. the land and seascape are beautiful and should be the main interest of the shot to achieve a better image, imo.
nice colors and scenery (California, I assume?). It has a pastoral quality, but also with some urbanesque grit. The diagonal line of the coast is a powerful compositional feature, and the seagull is a nice choice. I would have asked him to fly slightly to the left ;)
I'm not a big fan of the soft focus in this one; I haven't figured out why sometimes it works for me and sometimes not.
Burn is very obvious, to the point that it looks like the shot has fingerprints on the camera lens or something. It is hard to tell what the focus is of the picture.
