Surf is in this week, so here is another version of surfing the waves in summer.
You may have seen a similar version on another board, but not with this PP work.
Enjoy! ;)

I would love to see the surfie a bit further up and left. :) Like the treatment Mark. I really do. Thanks for sharing. :)
Mark, I love the treatment - it looks like stained glass:)

Mark, I'm okay with the placement as it's fairly small in the frame!!Nice effect and I agree w/ Cheryl it looks like stained glass!!
Hi Mark, The placement would work with Akos suggestion or the way it currently is...I like the varying tonality of colors and yes, it does look a bit like stained glass. Your handling made a somewhat common scene into something far more interesting.
I also think you could take a bit off the top and go with more of a pano crop. That would put the waves/water in at the 1/3 mark and more along the ROT's positioning.
Thanks for the comments and sorry for the delay, but there seem to have been a glitch with the site! :eek: Sure you are all aware. :(
The image is not pure on the screen, unfortunately Julie. There is a split of 1/3rds that I wanted to keep. I cropped the horizon line off the top, as the sky area was minimal. The surfer is the bottom 1/3, the dark blue of the ocean is the upper 1/3rd and the area in between is the middle 1/3rd. That is the area that is not well defined above, due to image shift in posting. It is a slight toning of the light blue above the whitecaps that I wanted to preserve but didn't hold in the posting. My screen and the print show the original as I desired it. Unfortunately, the separation of the ocean tones, did not transfer to the site as desired. :( :o But I appreciate all the comments.
mark, you are saying what i was thinking. it just didnt handle the jpeg compression well? i'd love to see the original. i like the surfer where it is and the crop.
Thanks Harold, I appreciate it.
I hope to have it up on my website later this year. Working on it with a friend, but with all of life's issues it might be a few months. Not that there are a lot of items, but there is a lot of work! :eek: ;)
I am trying to enhance my images so they do post better on the web site. Hopefully I can get this one to. Otherwise I may have to do some painting to get the tones I want! ;)
