This was taken on the first roll of film I'd ever used in my new camera just over a year ago (I'd not done any photography before that). I don't think it's one of my best and, before photoshop, the print seemed fairly bland. I cleaned up/sharpened and played with colour saturation a little which I think has transformed this into an acceptable image. I know the enhancement of colour doesn't appeal to everyone and maybe I take it a bit far sometimes. Others really like the colour. My theory is; I use colour film, why not make the most of the colours? Others' opinions matter to me but I really only do this for the enjoyment of it. I have no plans in making money from it or getting my name known. Please, I'd appreciate constructive criticism and any hints and tips. Thankyou for viewing.
exquisite tones and a superb composition. maybe crop a litle the top? but a gorgeous scene.

Beautiful picture,the sea is no more a blur, but it is wave and movement,the perfect composition shows dark rocks in its right position.The seagul is the last touch to make it worth 35 points. Regards jorge
