    Default Theme - Low Tide

    I took this image in St. Martins, New Brunswick on the Bay of Fundy last September. This was taken at low tide - it was very foggy. I used Topaz Clean - it made it look even more slippery than it really was

    Yup looks like Bay of Fundy, rocks are slippery and mud is deep. Bay of Fundy has the highest tides in the world, in some places 50 feet. One of my favorite Topaz filters, nice touch. Perfect for the theme....TFS

    Love the tone transitions on this one, they are silky smooth. Composition allows good depth with the bg fading into the fog as it becomes OOF. Might have opted for a little less right and a little more left in camera, but this also works well. Nicely processed too!

    This image really conveys the sense of being there on a foggy, wet, cold day. It causes me to think about how many years the sea has had to lap away at the rocks, and you can see some of the results of that erosion in the hollowed-out space and the pieces of the rock on the beach. Love the little pink flowers growing on the flat rock.

    I really like the transition of color as well as that of tones that Randall mentioned. Plus the variation in the shapes and textures of the rocks add to the complexity and detail of the image. It is really beautiful.

    Beautiful, subtle colors. Many diagonal lines--the slabs of tone, the placement of the round rocks, the vegetation, the edge of the drop, the lines of color. Soft yet strong image. Lots of details to look at. Variation on textures. I wouldn't change anything.
