Post Challenge. Seriously? No comments at all? This is a dark day. Granted I was somewhat tipsy when I shot this, but you'd think at least someone would complain about the lousy image or SOMETHING. Pff.

Post challenge Post comment - thank you vlado for the MUIMHO! That makes up for everything!

The tones are nice and dynamic. A very different take on the boats challenge in that we have a toy boat resting on a clam shell or shell that is pockmarked. I think but am not sure that the squarish object is a treasure chest. I think it would have been better to turn it around so it or angle it so that it is more identifiable. Analyzing this composition more I get the sense that it is supposed to project childhood and memories of the beach. There is just something extra that is needed...one or two more little things that would really cement or provide that 'umph' to make this an even better shot. Not sure what I could suggest to make it better because my brain is thinking that two items that could have been added for an interesting dynamic an 'X' marks the spot on the shell and a book in the backdrop with the spine showing such that you can read the words "Treasure Island" (I think I have been playing the soundtrack way too much for Pirates lately;-) )
