I like the muted color and feel of this image. The line of the water begins to lead, but then seems to curve back into the ocean rather than leading to the person on the beach.

Finally a good photograph with leading lines in it. I like the power of the ocean. The oceanline leads me to the photographer and then onward to the two rocks in the sea. And the birds in the background just makes it perfect. Good job and good luck.

A very moody and dramatic picture. Perhaps cloning out the birds on the left of the frame might give it an even more pure look.

Don't know if it's me or not, but your horizon doesn't seem quite level. On a good note, I love the water meeting the sand, and the inclusion of a human subject really makes the picture.

Comment by Artifacts:
Leading lines or curves generally have two purposes. One is to lead the viewer into the scene. The other is to lead you toward the main subject. It is most effective if they come in from the lower left because that is the natural direction humans visually scan a picture from so are easiest to pick up.

This image has subtle and very effective lines to direct attention to the beachcomber and the rocks beyond.

I like the picture, I think though that a tighter crop at the bottom would improve it considerably (7)
