That makes sense, regarding wanting to preserve the people as part of the story of the image. Thanks for sharing that. |

Well there's an idea too Alan, cutting it down to a 1:1 isn't bad either. Thanks all, I really appreciate the feedback and value your candid input! |

What an interesting image. I had to stare at it for a few to realize that thing is actually floating - not your typical boat!
I'm struggling a little bit w/the composition of this image. The folks taking pictures in the foreground keeps catching my eye, but I have to imagine the intended subject is the restaurant. Possibly move in and eliminate them, or maybe move to the right and use that tree as more of an anchor point?
There's also a purple cast throughout this image, especially in the clouds and down in the foreground on the folks taking pictures.
Thanks for sharing, I always enjoy seeing these images from outside my day-to-day surroundings.

I wouldn't have picked this out as an HDR, which I think is a good thing. It feels well exposed through and through. The attention you've paid to the symmetry is great too - excellent work. I'm on my work monitors at the moment, but the reds in the carpet do feel a little hot, but that could just be my setup.
Thanks for including the darker version (as your eye saw it) too. I think there's some real potential with version as well - amazing color and detail in those windows and cool pattern of light and dark going up that central walkway.

I don't have much to contribute beyond what Craig's pointed out. For me, the most predominant part of this image is that line in the sand pulling my eye from lower left on into the image, and then it gets lost. From what I can see of this image, it looks like there are possibly some cool sunrays on the right, coming out of those clouds. Hindsight being what it is, I'd try to incorporate those in the future and emphasize the important aspects of being at beach. |

I really enjoy the simplicity of this image's composition. There's not a lot to ponder or figure out, and sometimes that's refreshing in photography. Furthermore, it's well-exposed from a black and white standpoint. While nothing's blown out, it does appear a little bit of details in those highlights may have been lost (possibly consider exposing a stop under whatever this was captured at in the future).
You might consider giving a little room on the border. Three of the four sides appear to have little fingers of the subject cropped off, which always bugs me. If you captured the images this tightly (and don't have room to expand the crop), you could always just clone out those few little fingers to create the separation from the edge.

Hi Craig - thanks for the feedback. Your suggestion about removing the dead flower is spot-on. I felt like such a dope in processing for not having just removed it while I was taking the shot, but I guess I was thinking it'd be too difficult to clone it out in a way that looked realistic. My bad for sure, I suspect PS's content-aware fill would take care of it in a jiffy.
Your feedback about removing the little purple guy is interesting. I kinda felt like it and the red flowers on the right balanced things out a bit (although now that you mention it, maybe reducing exposure on the purple one a bit would help not pull your eye from the middle).
Anyway, gotta love how different folks' eye see things -thanks again!
