I really love the shape of umbrellas. This is it's own color wheel! I wish you had incorporated more negative (sand) space on either side of it. With this setting and relatively tight crop, it kind of has a targe bullseyet effect. The clarity is good and it certainly meets the challenge. 7

Thank you for your votes. I am very pleased to be in 11th place ( now 8th place), particularly since I generally favor natural light and minor set-ups. It is very hard to compete against "Studio" shots, with controlled lighting, controlled color, angles etc., but I find it very rewarding. Again, thanks.

This could have fit the challenge better if the umbrella had been turned to position the orange and yellow against the blue ocean and cropped closer, like one third of the upmbrella in the lower right corner. Minimalized - less is more.
Great focus, subject and lighting/ exposure!

I like the idea, but it is too busy for me.

Interesting pictue. Love the limes in this but the colors all seem to blend together in the background. Nice texture.

My favourite for this challenge. Great lighting, simple but effective composition and a nice story told by the picture. Oh, and I feel like I could reach out and pick up that drink, looks very appealing right now. The only niggle is the slightly bendy horizon, those damned zooms will get you...
