 Bribie Island, Queensland.
This is a long stretch of gorgeous surf beach, as well as a dog off-leash area. A very happy place, indeed!

Converted from RAW, added a layer of Topaz Adjust which I then reduced back in opacity. Cropped to straighten the horizon and cloned two little sticks off the sand near the front. Denoise and a little sharpening.

Perhaps I am misinformed, but I was under the impression that only "friends" could see the image and if such is the case, I doubt that Beetlehas identified many individuals as her friends in Facebook.

Assuming that the numbers are minimal, what possible impact could this have. I voted on this image and if you promise not to reveal my score to her I will gladly tell you what it was. :O)

And as I explained to you on Facebook..... I have THREE people from DPC on my list, how often do people show their submission to others beforehand to ask for advice?

Since it bothers you so deeply, just simply don't vote on it. I am amazed that YOU, of all people, find the energy to keep bothering about this. I was sure you had much more important stuff going on in your life.

I think it's cute. Could've darkened the edges a little bit to force attention to the middle, but it's cute. 7
