    A little past the wire for landscapes but just want to show I am doing my homework. :) Posted it in the Landscape section but thought you guys might want to see it.
    Took this on Friday and walked around for a couple of hours and took lots of shots from different angles of the beach til I got one that I liked. Converted into sepia.

    Cropped a little off the top
    Looked for an element of interest in the FG, and no clouds that day so I put one in.

    Hi...The sepia effect works well with this type of image. I like the elements of the shell and the grass in the foreground with the backround on a diagonal. The wisp of a cloud gives the sky the boost it needed. Well thought out!

    Love the composition Jackie and the effects you were able to achieve by converting it to Sepia.
    Very well done.
    Congrats

    Thanks Harold. I found the shell just before I took the image and placed it in. Seems to have made a big impact on the shot. Thanks for your comment, very much appreciated!

    Hi Jackie I was hoping the sand was totally white like the one you see out at White Sands !!!

    I like both very much and each has its own appeal
