Thanks for the inspiration mav.
Thanks to everyone who gave me positive (and negative) feedback on the high-key exposure. I'm happy with it despite the score I got and I'm glad others liked it as well. To explain a bit why I used it: I was doing logos for a surfshop so I wanted as few colors as possible as well as a background that cut into it naturally from the light. Also, the effect gave the waves much more definition. I edited out the other surfers floating in another version, but I couldn't do that for the challenge. I think it's funny that some people commented that it was very good for "sound" while others said that it didn't meet the challenge. Oh well. |

| I love the highkey in this, and the middle surfer is great, not sure how I feel about the other two with their backs to us though, makes the composition seem a bit cluttered and off. 6 |

| Totally washed out highlights... but it works in this photo! When my highlights are blown in my entries, I get picked apart for it... hope it doesn't happen to you - this is a really unique image that's interestingly composed and nicely conveys the sound of the waves. |

| Mmm... while I agree waves goes with the topic, the ones in this are a little on the wimpy side and the presence of the surfers ends up being distracting because of it. More background waves of a larger sort -- or even waves crashing over the boarding surfers' heads -- would have helped this impression. Also the extreme brightness of the shot really washes out the majority of the waves. |

| Too much brighness, or contrast, or something. |

| The waves make sound and if the subject of the picture was a wave crashing on a rock, then that would portray sound. Sound is lost as a subject in this picture. The surfer adds too much action to the feeling of the challenge. |

| This picture seems to portray action more than sound in my opinion. Therefore, as an action shot, it is done well. It is nicely focused and I like the reflection of the surfer in the water. I'm not sure as I like the over-exposed look. I would like to have seen some detail of the waves on the right. |
