Simply stunning, but not sure if it's minimal, not voting.

To crop a perfect square in Photoshop, press c for the crop tool, click anywhere and drag.. then hold the shift key ===> Square crop. You can also use the marquee selection tool (m) and click-drag-hold shift to get a square selection, which you can then (assuming around Photoshop CS2 or newer) move around before choosing Image->Crop.

Great image BTW, sorry you took it on the wrong day.

LOL...I can't believe that after you posted that it wasn't square the image fell by a point ! You do know that voters must have linked you with your other great surf image along with the posts in the forums....yikes !!!! Watch what you say in there for now on ! :-)

These are some great shots and I hope to see more.

On the square issue....this one looked just as square as any. To measure pixels is insane. If you're going to measure this and vote down then you should ONLY do so if you are going to measure ALL SHOTS IN THE CHALLENGE.

Absolutely awesome picture! Maybe if you reduced your age from 95, it would improve your organizational abilities... ;-p

Well Juliet, I am so sorry for you DQ, but then on the other hand I am elated to get the blue. Nevertheless you have the knowledge, that yours was the best photo. Not so long ago I had my blue DQ, because of a silly and totally unnecessary processing fault.
I guess this is how one learns to be more careful with details. Keep it up and we will meet again. Ruedi

Arrrrgh! The infamous wrong date in the camera. Been there but never on a blue, and caught it before submission. Still an excellent image, and definitely worthy of the blue. (as attested by the votes)

PS: I see it as square as well.
