Challenge: Sea (not land) (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-350D Rebel XT
Lens: Canon EF 70-200mm f/4.0 L IS USM
Date: Jun 30, 2007
Aperture: 18
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/500
Galleries: Water, Seascapes
Date Uploaded: Jun 30, 2007

 Thought I would anchor this seascape using people to give the photo interest. Not sure that this is allowed as such but I thought the siloutte created interest much like rocks or land would, with the sea as the dominating part of the picture.

Usual processing: cropped, sharpened, saturation, contrast, usm.

I like the composition here, but the story seems to be with the family so it feels strange that they are in silhouette.

Did they find anyting interesting? this picture doesn't really move me. It looks more like a vacation snapshot than a nice photo of the sea. 5

Nice beach shots, but the subjects come off distracting rather than part of the shot. not lit, but not quite silhouette, not blurry, but not sharp focus...
