Tracy wanted to go to the beach to get some shells, While Tracy was gathering shells (for making picture frames) I was shooting pictures of people on the beach. Asked one couple if I could take a picture, they said no no no, Tracy and I think they were having an affair, or perhaps they are just camera shy.

i like the concept and there's something really cool about the look of the water. the couple however has a difficult time standing out above the high-contrast rocks.
good composition, though you have fallen victim to the 50/50 photo, nothing screams out more than a horizon right down the smack middle of the photo. I like the people walking, the line of rocks leads me right to them, and that is fantastic. I think you split it like that to include the clouds, and I honestly think you could crop those out and keep the image impact you were trying for. Good luck in the challenge.
The colors here seem not quite as true as they could be. I like the composition of the shot quite a bit. Perhaps changing the white balance a little bit would bring the colors out some.
Nice idea. You captured a very romantic moment. The image gets me there. Technically the colours could have been better. It's a little ovexposed and I don't like the purple casts in the water and sky. Good luck!
Ocean color seems unrealistic, and the line of rocks distracts from the couple, as it passes right through them. If they had been dressed more brightly (to draw the eye to them) and the rocks been at their feet, and the ocean more believable, it would have been much better.
