lovely colors - i just wonder if the DOF is a bit too shallow

John hits several great points about the light and DOF (f9 may have been a bit too small an aperture).

For me, there is a lot to like about the image, the bubbles carrying our eyes around the scene, the brightness of the jacket, the gorgeous beach scene, but I think what does not quite work (and this is a matter of less than 1 second) is that the girls face and eyes are covered by the bubble. Had we seen her eyes, this would be something extra special.

a beautiful location and beautifully composed. i almost wonder if the processing pulled back the light in the sky a bit too much...

very nicely composed - i almost wish there was a subject on the street to make the scene more alive.

i like the interplay of lines created by the walking paths - and finding the walker was like doing a 'where's waldo' puzzle.
