 Taken at sunset on Playa Samara in northwest Costa Rica. Just a chance photo as the horseback riders were returning from their sunset ride.

Camera Raw: white balance more to the cool side. PS: dodge and burn to bring out the water splashing and sunset highlights on the horse and rider. Selective sharpening. Crop and border.

I think if it had been zoomed in a bit, it would have been an 8. -7-
