Jason, thans for your comment on my photo for on the beach challenge, I thought i would give the comment back, and I agree with your comment that I could have moved over to get that light out of the way, I am not sure how much I noticed when I shot the photo. I think this shot is great, it was one of only three 9's I gave out in the whole challenge. The way you processed this image is excellent. My one complaint would be this border that you used, I think using no border or something much smaller would have helped your score go up a few tenths higher. Thanks again for your comment and this is an excellent image,
joe

VERY DRAMATIC.

Great job, and although I love the intesity of the 'color' in this one, I just don't get the water part, it's too hard to tell it's really water, and hints that it's fog. It's not enough of either one to be able to tell. I gave this a 5.

framing is distracting, nice image though

Very nice shot and post processing. Nice emotional surreal feel. The beveled border is a bit distracting but still a good overall shot.

Awesome photo. I love the composition but you could had got more of the log. I like the textures in it and it would maybe more interesting.

I really like this shot, one of the few black and white beach shots that actually looks great. The picture just takes your eye throughout the entire picture. Nice job.

Great shot. Border really takes away from pic.

Nice shot that is overpowered by the frame.

3-D-framing of this otherwise beautiful image is a deadly sin; should be as simple and calm as the image itself. - 6

Nice image, but I don't like the heavy border !
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very nice shot. Th eframe may be a bit much but the capture inside is very nice and the black and white works well. Good job.

Love the photo but i will have to call the border police.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I am sure other comments say this as well but; it is a beautiful photo ruined by a very distracting border. The eye wants to look at the rounded border edges instead. Take the border away and this may have scored quite high. Since I am a border guy though I wish you the best of luck!

fun photo, think the log could use a little move to the left and i dont like the frame at all, it takes away from a great photo.

WOW. it works
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very nice, perhaps a simpler border though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/20/2006 02:49:32 PM
Nice picture without the frame. IMHO
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/20/2006 01:47:59 PM
I found the boarder quite distracting. I think plain black without the beveled edges would have been nicer, but the photo itself is very very nice.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I like the view down the tree trunk. I would suggest a thinner border, it kind of overwhelms the photograph
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Lovely shot, very subdued and tranquil. Great contrast, solid composition, and the border really adds to it. 10

I'm not too sure about that border.
I think a more "simple" approach would have highlighted your picture more-which is really rather good.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/20/2006 02:16:21 AM
I think this would have been nicer without the border, lovely perspective.

Like it!

Th border completely destroys this otherwise fine shot. 5.

I like the picture a lot, but the frame is a bit large in my opinion. I still feel this is one of the more interesting photos in this challenge. 9

I love the picture but I don't think the frame is doing anything for it.

I have to say from the outset that I am not a fan of the frame you have chosen, but your photo is nice...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
07/19/2006 02:13:03 AM
way too thick of a frame

Picture 10 border 1 So you get a four.
