| I think the ocean is draining to the right. Seascapes really show when you're not level. Try leveling in PP. The shark is very small, and without the title I would have never guessed it was there. However zooming or cropping would should a flat sea with a fin sticking out. I don't know if it would improve it any. |

| I'm sure you will get many folks who will tell you that in a shot like this it will improve on the image to have the horizon straight. This is just a simple rotate in any editing program. Is that really a shark or a dolphin? |

| Colors are flat...horizon isn't level (and doesn't look intentionally canted)...could have used more contrast and color bump! |

| I'm sure you've already heard about your crooked horizon...there's nothing here to draw me in, the title sounded exciting, and if you say so, ok, but I don't see a shark... is that black spot a fin? hard to tell really. |

| Uneven horizon... very distracting. Subject is too small to identify or appreciate. |

| Nothing in particular that catches my eye, I know there's a shark way far, but i wouldn't have guessed if it wasn't in the title. |

| I don't really see a shark and the horizon is a bit crooked. |

| The wave doesn't have enough texture or pattern to carry this photo...a more defining subject could give this more interest and help balance the composition. |

| Where? You mean that tiny black spot in the centre? Ok, I'll take your word for it. Your shark is swimming downstream - straightening the horizon will slow him down a bit before he gets to the bathers and it'll even make your picture look better. It's also lacking in tonal range, saturation and contrast - you can tweak all of those in post processing. |

| Sorry about the crooked horizon comment, but I can't give it a good score when it's as crooked as it is. |

Do you mean that dot centre shot? Shots like these have caused me to buy bigger and better cameras over the years! It's so frustrating when you can clearly see something but the camera optics refuse to do it justice.
I usually ended up reverting to the Mk1 Eyeball and just telling everyone about it.
I might have improved the shot if the horizon were level - sharks can't swim uphill!:) |

| it would have been nicer if the horizon was straight. |

| Rule nr.1 in ocean horizont is the have them horizontal. I learned it this way to be getting loads of comments from DPC users. |

| As much as I'm sure it was dramatic to see, it doesn't really translate into this image. |

| You needed to get in focus, to straighten your horizon and, perhaps, get a better zoom on the shark. |
