    Default On the Rocks

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    Photographed off the coast of South Africa, at Boulders Beach near Cape Town. This is the South Atlantic Ocean. This is a fabulous area to visit with the penguin colony so accessible and more than tolerant of people. Plus the coastal scenery can be dramatic. In camera I used a slow shutter speed. For PP I used Topaz, cartooned.

    Hey Nancy,
    This has a very graphic/poster lok to it and I happen to like it! I went to school for graphic design so it fits right in. I do think if you crop down off the RH side....eliminating the rock in the LRC and then proportionally off the top......minimizing the top lighter band wave.....it will make the comp stronger. Let's see what others chime in.

    Nancy. I would just clone out that corner in the lower right side of the frame. I think a crop from the right would bring the one rock too close to the center. Nice painterly look to this one

    Very nice Nancy, I like the effect the cartoon treatment has had on this scene.

    Very nice image and application, Nancy.

    While I like the image. This is one that cries for the sharp focus rocks ... to rock! But I like what you have and did for this vision.
