Evading Erosion

I love this image! The dark silhouettes, the lighting of the clouds, and the gorgeous reflection grab my attention. Also love what you've done with the border although I wish it were a tad narrower, maybe 50% of what it is now. Currently for some reason, it gives me tunnel-vision and claustrophobia.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Nice to "meet" you Kali.

What can I say about this shot? It's fantastic. How come you didn't get DQ'd when you submit your info? *shrug* Strange.

Anyways - congrats on the purple ribbon. I don't think there's much to critique here. Maybe the top center of the photo is a tad overexposed? Maybe the real problem is that I didn't take this photo? :)

Good job and continued good luck!

Hi Kali, let me congratulate you on the "purple ribbon" and a great shot. You are a great example for that it's not always the camera, but the photographer and imagination what makes a good photo. I love all the negative space you have included here, and the expressions on the girl's face. Way to gooo! :-)

Hi Everybody!
YAY I made the top 5 :)

Some sad news is that I didn't have my date / time set within my camera for this very "Serendipitous" shot. So of course I will be disqualified. Oh well... at least I know I'm getting better at pleasing the very picky DPC crowd and that it is possible for me to reach the top 10 even with my little point and shoot.

Thanks for all the wonderful... and not so wonderful comments.

PLEASE make sure you're date/time is set within your camera!

Aloha!
