I like the concept that you were going for but I think you fell a little short. IMHO you should have used more light and then driven the contrast up to boost the red wine and we would see more of the ripples on the water.

Lighting direct in a light box with some base colour would have brought the image to life.

Still a great attempt at this shot.

MAX!

trying to copy Judi's shot? I think it's a good shot, but the clothes look too clean and plus, there are boats less that a half-mile away, so how can I belive that the person is stranded? A different title would help loads. However the shot is technically good so I won't slam you with a bad score. Just think about it next time.

Looks like rain in the back ground, is that the case or is that processing? I like the puddles up front .. ironic that the subject is stranded but there are boats close by-if only they could yell.

Comment by bassbone:
interesting image - but the title seems completely off base since I see a house, multiple boats, etc near by.

Interesting shot but I am not real sure what to make of the boy laying on the beach, he does not look liked he washed up onto the beach because he is to clean and the positioning does not look right. I think the setting is great, the beach has a lot of character, the lighting and DOF are decent but the pose IMO does not quite fit the image. 6

Can't be stranded with all of those boats and houses around. :P Very nice image that's well captured on all technical points. Like the processing also. Good luck in the challenge.

Interesting. My first though was Gulliver's Travels. The person looks so large from the angle you took. For me, a bit more contrast with the person and foreground and I would have scored it higher.
