Harlequin Pair

[Bonnie Block]

Well, chalk up another dismal and cloudy day here in Seattle. Luckily, the harlquins invited me out to their rock for the first time. I waded out at low tide and on some precarious footing--but they stayed put and allowed me a very close view. Tough shooting in real low light--but fun just the same! :)

Hello Bonnie,

I find the rocks a strong distraction. The horizon needs some works as well. There is a black line at the right lower corner which I'm not sure what that is.

I think this is a nice habitat image, but suffers from some basic technicals.

Keep them coming!

Hi Maxis, thanks for your comments.
I must have missed on the right side there, as I had already rotated this image a bit and had to add some canvas to the right.
Any better?

Hi Bonnie,

Good job fixing the black like. I still think the horizon needs to be fixed, use your grids in Photoshop. I'll try to post my version in few minutes.

This is my version with the horizon fixed. Sorry about your signature but I had no other choose. Hope you like it and see the difference.

Thanks!

I actually think I over did it by two degrees. Getting late LOL... :)

Hope you don't mind!

Thanks Maxis! I do see. I should go more by the shadows than by the water lines. This image is a tough one for me.
