 A lower viewpoint of the Hobie class sail
during the race. The sail was stationed at the beach. I thought i would be a nice way to show the height of the sail.

Interesting perspective, you really did capture the length of the sail. The overall shot is very nice. I like to play with the positioning of the subject and would be curious to see if off to one side more then the other. One other thing I would have played with to see what would happen would be the colors. There is just something about a shot where the colors just pop out of the photo. I thinking standing out is important in these large competitions, I know my attention many times is drawn to the thumbnails with bright colors that require your immediate attention. Also by enhancing the colors of the sail it would be probably intensify the sky and made a more dramatic effect. You would probably have to make sure the clouds weren't to drastic and take away from the subject. Very nice job overall and a good subject.

My eyes keep hoping to see more of the sail or even part of the boat to give an even greater sense of perspective. Nice colors though.

Colors are faded. Could use a boost of contrast to make them pop out more.
