Very nice movement. I'm not voting, but I'll critique this anyway because I like photos like this where I actually might have a decent suggestion. Emphasis on might.
As powerful and impressive as the motion of the wave is, I'll contradict myself now and say the photo to me is too busy. And I think that is because it's a tight crop and the border does not suit the crop. I might have pulled back off this crop a little to get a greater sense of perspective of the scene, or had the water rushing in from out of frame more (compositional preferences only), but my main issue is that I feel the thick, white lines overpower the white of the wave, and also contradict the lines in the wave, which are running near vertical. I think if you were to ditch those white lines (or at a minimum reduce them to a pixel wide each and soften the white (maybe pulling the white from the wave with the eyedrop tool)) this would be a much stronger and less confusing image.
I typically don't give a damn about borders, but this seems like a really quick way to improve this photo.
Keep in mind I'm not a good photographer, but as a viewer, that's what I see. |
