Re: Green on the Sand

I like the low perspective and the placing of the greenery in the frame. I think that you could crop out about half the out of focus foreground without losing anything. nice shot!

Re: Green on the Sand

I do like out of focus areas but I do think in this shot it is catching the eye and distracting from the plant. But it's a lovely sharp shot and the plant stands out well despite the green background.

Re: Green on the Sand

It's a lovely shot but has a strong blue colourcast which is taking away from its impact IMO. I'd like to show a pimped version to you where I have sorted out the colour cast but will only do so with your permission as you are not showing the EDIT permission logo. I respect your choice if you'd prefer not to.

There is a good image in here

Cheers,
Rob

Re: Green on the Sand

I agree with Rob and Mark, there's a good shot in here remove the colour cast and trim the bottom a bit. The isolation of the plant in amongst all those stones is a real winner.

cheers

Re: Green on the Sand

Agree with the others here. The colourcast is rather strong and a overpowers the shot in my eyes. Lovely image just waiting to come out. Think the plant is placed just enough off centre to make this an interesting shot

Please go into your User CP (link is at the top left of the forums) and then under 'options' scroll down to the bottom and tick the box that says 'allow image editing' and then save. Once that's done the image edit icon will appear under your name on all posts in the forum and people will be allowed to do as you have just requested.

Re: Green on the Sand

Here's the pimped version Chihaw, not done much other than to remove the colourcast but I think you'll see it makes quite a difference.

Cheers,
Rob
