After a miserable day of weather I decided it was still worthwhile to take some shots down the beach for a camera class assignment. I believe I was well rewarded!

Back to comment: This image is smaller than what is allowed for a challenge. The longest side of your image should be 640 pixels. When your image is this small, it is hard to see the details and judge the quality of the image. Because of that, many people will give a low vote and move on without really looking.

The horizon at the back there looks interesting, why not put more of that detail in your composition?

too small, perhaps better with a deeper DOF

This looks like it was a nice composition, but it is really too small to judge. It also seems soft, but that could be the size again.

I kinda like it...and I know other's are saying it, yes always make your photo the biggest it can go for the challenge...it will always help you

intended composition is sound. However, the DOF isn't right. It's hard to see at this size, but it looks like the only point of focus is the very near end of the log. You needed to stop the aperture way down, and get the focus point correct so that the log and the bluff in the background are sufficiently in focus as to not detract from the composition. A tripod would be an absolute must, as your shutter speed in that light at the small aperture would likely be on the order of seconds. Also, remote shutter release and mirror lock-up (if available on your camera) are also needed.

This would have greater impact if you used the full 640 pixel length. Can't see any detail at this size.
