better late than never.....keeping with the summertime theme from last week. taken sunday morning down on south beach. for those that dont know, all the lifeguard stands on sobe are unique. this is just one of many different styles on the beach. they are really neat!
thanks for looking. comments and critiques appreciated.
Hey Harold, At first I thought this was a space vehicle that landed on another world. The graduations of color are very pleasing and I like your positioning of the stand within the image. The filter applied gives the image a painterly quality which is appealing. Nice job!!
Harold this totally rocks!!! Seriously...what a striking and forceful image yet, at the same time, it's so peaceful...
The composition and colors are fantastic - love the way the horizon practically glows. I might want to see just a tiny bit more sharpness right around the lifeguard station only but it's beautiful as is.
awesome pp Harold....only critique would be regarding the 2 bright yellow panels
where sun is showing behind guard rails....I think you see where I'm talking about.
They just seem out of place!!
I think you did great here, son, especially on isolating the house from so many photographers :)
It does look like a weather station in the mountains, over the clouds.
thanks everyone. topaz simplify 2/watercolor.......nik color efex/bi-color filter........nik color efex/tonal contrast........oh, and btw.........it's an HDR, too!!!!
hey dave.....those different colored panels, it's a by product of the topaz simplify. that's the one thing i have found that i dont like about the program. i had the same problem before with a lighthouse that had cables running through it making different "zones", for lack of a different word. using the sliders i was able to get all of them consistent, but on this one i was not. as i am sitting here, i think i may have a way to fix it. will try it later. i totally agree. the way it is is not right.
going back and looking again, there are other areas where it did the same thing....look at the steps and a couple of areas left and right of them.
