| This is a great shot - all the elements support a marine theme, and the patterns of the ripples in the sand, the waves in the ocean, the flock of birds and the grass bent in the wind all keep the eye interested. |

I prefer this one over the other. The other shot has too many distractions in the sand itself like dead plant matter. This one seems relatively void of such imperfections. I also like the background better here with the water and the birds in V formation. Although it seems difficult to tell if the horizon is level due to the mountains and water, it looks level. I'd tinker around with levels and curves to maximize contrast and maybe clone out the odd bits and ends in the sand. One more suggestion: try this in b/w or some other duotone. Sometimes the best nature shots, or shots in general, look much better in b/w.
Otherwise, great shots and keep up the good work! I wish I had access to dunes like these but I have stuff like the Walt Disney Concert Hall, sheesh. :) |
