Would like to see more detail in the shadows (the rocks). Maybe a tad oversharpened too. Nice comp though.

It's a great shot that is processed with too much... USM? It's a bit harsh.

love the action in here...but over all it is a hard picture to look at...I think cause of the blazing sun...it is making everything shimmer...

I like the shot/subjects for what it is, I like the composition. I know getting exposure right is tough with bright sun, bright water/waves. So take this for what it's worth: Looks like you pumped up the contrast too much, maybe saturation too. The outcropping of rocks and the dogs end up just silhouettes. It just looks over processed. If you've been on DPC any amount of time, you know how harsh the viewers can be and the highly skilled post processors get the better scores. Good luck on this and future challenges.

good, but way oversharpened and too much contrast in the scene
