The only one

A lovely location and with so much possibilites. The wall, the building and the sand all provide a lovely frame to the white water and the almost perfect placement of the person in the frame. However, the image seems excessively processed on my monitor. While voting, I couldn't get past the oversharpening that made the lines in the building and the edge of the water jump off the screen. This contrasted with the supersmooth sky and loss of texture in the building walls from smoothing software. Had it been processed in a more subtle way, i would have likely voted it an 8 or 9. As it was, I gave it a 3.

the darkness of the photo, the centered crop, the curl of the path to lead us in - all great components
