Hillsboro Shoreline

[Michael Pancier]

Don't know in what category this image would fall, so I put it here. Used one of my starfish props at Hillsboro Beach at sunrise. No processing other than some viveza adjustments and some punch up of the brilliance/warmth setting in Nik Color Effects Pro.

Michael, I really like the image design. I'm wondering if a more corner comp. for the shell would be good since it's small.

I tried that, but then I lose the foam at the bottom corner ... but now you have me thinking.... a 90 degree ccw rotation perhaps?

[Christopher Miller]

Excellent lighting and image design, Michael. Agree with Denise that more of a corner comp might be nice.

[Jackie Schuknecht]

Love the lighting too and the sharpness. Might crop a bit from the bottom. Nice feel to the image.

Hey Michael,
Light looks great and I like the line the water makes.....almost a yin/yang thing.....I'm with Jackie on the bottom crop(to the shadow above the a in Michael in your sig)......this will in effect put the starfish in a lower corner position and be more effective than a CCW rotation IMO. Very well thought out and composed!

Michael, I love the lighting - it feels like I'm standing right there. It's a beautiful image:)
