| My first impression was: the colours are just too rich for a grey day. I like this shot, I like how the person is walking out of the picture, and I love the red umbrella. |

| Love the colors... In Florida, the sand doesn't look like that... Neither does the water... I like this more and more as I look at it - man... the color is spectacular!! sorry for being repetitive. 8 :) |

| like the red umbrella. Guessing you bumped up the red channel because the sand and hand are off color. Maybe complete desat except for red channel would have worked here with a little bump up in the contrast in the clouds. As it is, I give you an 8 for the composition, point of view and crop. Would have liked slightly more drama here - its almost speaking to me, but not quite. working with the tones and colors would improve the score. Really like this image - let me know if you do any further work with it. I'd love to see the results! |

| Good choice having a red umbrella in the guys hand. Great split of the scene with the beach water and sky. |

| Very nice photo. Gorgeous colors. Would better fit the challenge description (IMO) if either a) it had more beach, less sky or b) had more sky, less beach. Also would like to see subject entering the pic rather than leaving it; this almost feels like the subject is abandoning the pic. |

| This is really sweet. It's so close to perfect in its balance that I find myself REAKKY wishing you'd taken the time to square the horizon precisely; that would make a noticeable difference on this image. I love the tonalities of it. |

| Ouch .. Would have been perfect (in my opinion) if there was more space in front of the person (not much more, just a little bit) and more sky also and less sand or the opposite more sand and less sky. |

| I would suggest for this one instead that the red on the umbrella be singled out, and the rest, desaturated, t;would offer better attention to the main subject, and ya, by the way, nice work though, 6 |

| Love the red, would have like to seen it with a nice blue sky. And you say why would they have an umbrella if the sky was blue, But thats the point. They wouldnt. Which would grab attention. |

| Interesting composition. The book says to have the subject moving into the picture, but I like this moving out. |

| its a good shot, though you fell victim to having the frame split in half. Nex time, when composing the shot, place the man at intersecting thirds. This will give a greater impact on the photo. I know that this was a basic challenge, but perhaps you could do some slight burning of the clouds to give them some impact. Maybe even some levels might make them jump out some more. |

| Nice use of color. The bright red umbrella against the desaturated sky and ocean really catches the eye, and the red sands break the tedium. |
