I went to the beach in Florida for break and the water was so cold! I took out my camera and made my friends snap a picture of my inability to swim. You have to view the picture in a new tab because it's too big.

I thought the couple's mirror images on the sand were so cool! The picture itself was like one you'd see in a bathing suit ad which is a good thing because it looks really proffensional. The waves were my favorite part. All the way at the end the waves looked realy pretty. Im sorry if this review sucked...I'm not very good at reviewing pictures. Smiles though

I am nothing but a mouthful of 'sorry's, half-hearted apologies that roll of my tongue, smoothquick, like 'r's or maybe like pocket candy that's just a bit too sweet.
Great picture! I love the candid-ness of it, if it isn't, then good posing! Well, if you use Photoshop, then you can re-size the images. It would be easier to vie and review. So, here we go: 1. Good filter effects. 2.The white brightness at the top center extends a little too much. Try reducing the brightness a little to make sure it doesn't look so alarmingly huge. (Sorry if it sounds harsh ) 3.I think you should crop some portion off the right side as it is very distracting.

I'd recommend casting a 5% blur over the background -- just enough so that the couple is not so much in focus; you're the focus of the photo, but my eyes are being pulled to them instead.
Although it's semi-monotone, this has such a cheery spirit to it; reminds me of awesome summers and laughter and all of the wonderful memories associated with it, with a melancholy tone casted over it.
Two thumbs up. I love it.

I love this photo because it feels so natural and it shows a beach scene at it's best. The effects you've used work wonders for me and I think this photo is built up very well. It looks professional like Jasmine said, but it also looks personal and could be showing the real 'fun' of messin' on the beach with your mates which I think I adore! Beaches are brilliant... Anyway! A nitpick I'd have is similar to Juni's about the focus of the couple. My personal thoughts of this, though, would be to play about with some blur effects or distillations or any filters (if you have any) and create a collection of versions of the same photo and pick which you think shows the image best. A 5% blur over the background may appear a little strong, but it depends on the program software you use.
Hi there, I've gotta say this is a pretty amazing picture. I love the effects, the monotone color and the amazing detail the waves give off. The couple in the back seem to be making a picture of their own, like you could crop them out and it'd be another picture, which is kinda cool. But at the same time they were the first thing my eyes went to see and it should have been you I like the natural feel to this and the awesome effects. It makes it feel so real and it's quite enjoyable. Keep it up!

Hey, there. Pretty nice photography you've got here. Beaches, aren't they great for pictures? Yes. Yes they are. But it's also the photographer. You, obviously, have practice. This is a very well taken picture. I like it better because of the effects, it makes it stand out more. I don't think I'd like it as much if you hadn't edited like this. Great, great work.
