Critique Welcomed The Snorkelers

[Paul Lange]

On a beach in Tripoli these guys are looking for? I have no idea but I did find the image slightly surreal in some ways. I think this could maybe do with a bit of a smoother PP but on the other hand I quite like the slightly blurred and grainy effect the conversion to jpeg has given the image. Seems to suit the subject well.

What are those guys up to? LOL. Seems a slightly humorous scene to me. Nice capture.

Although this would seem not to be everybodys cup of tea I find myself drawn to it for some reason. So much so I decided to have a re-edit of it.

I was too slow to comment on the original Paul but I liked that too, with the more muted colours. It has a real element of intrigue to it doesn't and I like that we don't really know that they are doing. I also like the bands of colour created by the composition and the placement of the 3 black elements.

Thanks for the comments Rob & Pete. Next time I see them I will ask what they are looking for!

That'll spoil the mystery!! Leave them as seaweed planters of the mind!!
