That's more like it! Provides a sense of disorientation and uncertainty.

Well seen. Very interesting effect (although I might not characterize it as a technical flaw)

.. .There is one spot on the cape where the view of the bay is constrained so that you only see a narrow section between two vertical dark areas and you get this effect there ... every time. I find it fascinating, apparently it's a well understood phenomena.

By and large the images with blown out areas are my favorites (as a category) in this challenge, this one included.

Great portrait shot, softened by excellent DOF control and added grain. His expression, especially his eyes, make this a very special image. Voted, earlier, got my highest score.

Love the softness from the added grain. Very appropriate. Nice leading line and the two lights add a lovely "pop". Voted earlier, got my highest score.
