Comment by PHOTOKID:
I like the positioning of the camera to add the foreground interest of the sea grass in the foreground. The detail in the grass in the foreground helps me to want ot explore the photo futher. There are alot of pleasing textures to it, from the sands to the grass to the waves crashing onto the shore. I like the depth caused by the shorline where the waves break.

I do not really care for the sticks and people hanging out in the center of the frame, but that is just my opinion, i was thinking if they were your subject, then the composition you chose was good. Because if you had tried to move them to a point along the rule of third lines it wouldnt allow the sand to come up to the foreground.

Wonderful detail on the shrimp and mussels in the forefront. Love that you practically filled the frame with this dish - it brings us closer to your subject so that we can savor the flavor:-) Lighting is absolutely wonderful illuminating your subject perfectly so that we can fully apreciate it. You did a great job on this 9.

DOF is a tad too shallow, lights are a tad too blown, crop is a tad too close, border is a tad too bold. And where are the rice and vegetables? This looks rather like a bouillabaisse.

I would love to see the larger version of this. It looks like there is so much to see. I gave you a 9. I think you were ripped.
