I really like the simplicity of this shot, although for me personally I'd go slightly more rectangular on the crop but photo wise very nice

 

[Beth Carter]

the sky doesn't do much for me, i'd crop some off of the top and really just show off the sun, water and that beautiful sand and reflection.

Thanks Mark, it was originally rectangular. I prefered the balance of square for this shot. I may have another look.

 

[Milan Vjestica]

Thanks Beth. I cropped out a fair bit of sky as there was really no interesting feature there. How drastically would you crop?

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Love the warmth Milan

 

[Milan Vjestica]

Thanks Chris. It was about 25°C at 6am!

It certainly has an early morning feels to it. I see what Beth means though and cropping more of the sky might give a different feel.

Hi Beth and Pete,
More like this?

I think so.

 

[Mark J. Allen]

WOW, that has made all the difference, I liked it before but now i really like it, I can imagine this on a canvas on the wall

Thanks Mark. Both follow the rule of thirds!
