The Sea Is The Mother Of Us All

The water is oversharpened. Water rarely looks so sharp... Here's how to avoid it next time:

1) Apply USM for the entire image
2) Click the History brush
3) By default, the history icon will be on the original (as opened) image, you can move it to any layer just before your last change by clicking on the square to the left of the change in the history pallete.
4) Set opacity for the history brush to 50% or less.
5) Then begin painting back the previous (or original) view in the areas of the image where you don't want the sharpening to be visible.

Hope this makes sense. Any questions, feel free to PM me.

There is a funny brownish darkening in the center of her left cheek ... as if it has been dodged while the surrounding cheek was not. If anything, the way light falls on a curved surface, that part of her cheek ought to be brighter than the rest.

Watch out for the halos... the tiny branches especially show that the image has been oversharpened, but you can also see the halo around the island in the center. Love the texture of the sky. The water probably shouldn't be sharpened at all. Then tilt your horizon back to where the water is level.... everyone knows water will run down hill so images of water especially need to be straight.

Love the leading lines. And thank you for the title - it forced me to look at the picture just a little bit longer.

I like it ... except that it appears over sharpened, especially in the hair and the eyebrows.
