Challenge: Free Study 2015-11 (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Apple iPhone 6

Date: Nov 2, 2015
Aperture: f/2.2
ISO: 32
Shutter: 1/200
Date Uploaded: Nov 29, 2015

 I was shooting a destination beach wedding in Ft. Walton Beach, Florida first of this month and saw this sunset setting behind us while we were finishing up the rehearsal. I quickly took my iPhone out, focused on the brightest point (clouds) and hoped for the best. I loved the way it turned out. I've always wanted to enter a challenge using a iPhone pic. I can't wait to see how this one scores.

Post Processing : Curves, dodge and burn throughout...a little on the clouds, some on the water. I cloned out an arm of a person that was walking along the beach, that was barely in the bottom right of the frame. That's about it.

Predicted Score: 6.25

Good luck everyone!

Greetings from the Critique Club

Hmm this is the kind of image that makes the case for me as to why phones are not as good as cameras. The top two thirds of this image are flat and washy, while the bottom third is actually very nice to look at with nice thirds and leading lines. To be blunt I'm surprised that this snap finished over 5.5.

Having read your photog's notes, the one question I can't help but ask is, why oh why didn't you use your camera?!
