 This one was actually an outtake, because I originally submitted another photo, which I liked the most, but it had a slight problem with nudity, so I was a bit undecided anyway, but then I saw a miracle - open Nude V challenge(!!), where it fitted perfectly. what are the odds for something like this??

So this one is taken on the beach of Kamenjak peninsula (Croatia) - it's beautiful in the early fall, (almost) warm water, (almost) no people, just a few nudists, heaven.

Shot with a polarizer; edit: slightly rotated and cropped, auto contrast, topaz adjust (photo pop), shadows/highlights, resized, usm, border, sfw. Hope I could clone out the disturbing details in the upper left corner.

I like the subtle colour scheme. Especially the water colour and detail. Fantastic. I love the rocks. The upper part of the picture is distracting a bit. I guess you wanted to show great deep DOF by that. However, the rocks and light emerald waters are more than enough. Good luck - 8.

It seems a bit out of focus.
