Shell on the Beach

Comment by Montereykiddo:
DOF isnt shallow enough here. If you had gotten closer to the shell and maybe had the bright sand in the background be your bokeh, it could have worked better.

Your composition is interest enough for a second look but your colors seems a little muted. You may have done this on purpose, but personally I would have increased the saturation/contrast just a bit. Your waldo is well hidden, it took me awhile to spot her.

Yeah, she´s there! In a diagonal lined up with the first tree at left (a thin one).

Comment by Arcanist:
This shot does have a candid feel to it, but also feels like little more than a average snapshot. It holds a story that would have been better told by zooming in on the child facing us who appears to be looking at one of the leeches captured. This would have eliminated the overexposed highlights on the second child's back and left us with some very strong leading lines and no distracting extras like the float. Some slight dodging in the facial shadows of the main subject would then bring out the real subject. Overall a nice capture, but too wide an angle to have a big impact. Rating: 5.

Comment by LevT:
nice photo, but i think waldo should be seen better than a couple of pixels marking her hands

I really like the 3-D effect this seems to have on my screen. Brilliant color. Don't care for the tilted composition.
