Artist's Comments

Sand Beach, Acadia National Park, Maine. I really like how the water, the wave, and the sand/sandy water all have different colors.

---

For this picture, as with the rest of the pictures I am going to submit of this trip, there are minor changes, namely levels and color balance, as well as some possible color enhancements. I feel that I am still well within my right to place them within the Photography category. If anyone objects and thinks they should be moved to the Photo-Manipulation category, I shall comply.

It sort of looks like a gradient of color...

...Was your camera tilted, since the horizon makes it seem that way.
The island is also blurry and sky a bit pixel-y.
(...I point things out too much, sorry.)

But, the wave does look cool. Imagine manipulating this to make it seem like a huge tidal wave.

I don't think Maine is hit with too many tidal waves, especially in the bays... XD

And yes, as previously mentioned, my camera, although nice, likes to be grainy and I tend to twitch just when it wants to take a long exposure picture... and I was in the water, half sinking, so that accounts for tilty-ness.

Well, it'd be cool if it happened.
Shouldn't be that hard to exaggerate... Maybe a cropping of the photo, an addiction of some shadows, change in colors...

Ah, sinking in the water, always nice.

Manips don't really like me that much... I have only really done one, it is presently a large print in my living room, and I forgot to shadow something... My leg to be precise. I'm sitting on a large mushroom and one leg has a drop shadow, the other does not...

Do you remember earth science? Oh course how can we forget :shakefist: The water was eroding the sand from under my feet leaving me to stand on something similar to those rock pillars in deserts? I nearly fell (with my phone and camera) into the water a couple times ^^;

Very nice.
That's why you always have to double check and save a file of it just in case you need to edit stuff...
Flipping it around helps too, looking at it from different angles.

Haha, smooth.

Flipping does help, I know I flipped something and caught at least 5 things that looked very off.
