    Default Waves

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    Well I tried to come up with something for the theme, and went through my files and came up with this. Put it through frac, Aquarell, and blended them together. Added a little texture and de-saturated just a bit. Taken at Georgian Bay (off Lake Huron) where the water takes on the tropical colours of the water in the Caribbean.
    Comments/suggestions appreciated.

    The effects you've used have worked really nicely on this image. I like the colours and texture of the water roiling over the rocks.

    Jackie, I really like the blues and whites together. The fract work on the crashing waves and surface of the water really make this one for me.

    Beautiful composition, Jackie. I love the blue color and the fract effect on the white waves. Very nicely done.

    Thanks for the comments, the colours are quite vibrant, but I thought they were in keeping with the colours of the orig.( albeit more saturated ) and the energy of the water!

    Very vibrant colors and it does remind me of the Caribbean. Nice use of the filter.

    Jackie - I love the combination of filters and the yummy colors. It really does look like the Caribbean.

    I love, love, love this; the colors and the filter effects are killer. I do believe that a small crop from the bottom would strengthen it.

    Yes, it has a much cleaner lower edge. I love it even more now :)
