Hello, a serene and beautiful capture with wonderful pastel colors. The light is warm and wonderful too. Having said that there are a few things I would consider changing to improve it. I would suggest cropping out the little sand mound in the center as it detracts from the figure at the waters edge. Also the little white object to the left hand side of the beach. A crop of about a third from the bottom of the beach area would also help. Its an excellent capture and inmo very much worth a little more work.
Kind regards, Phill

This sunrise scene is beautiful and the soft pink and purple coloring of the sky is very attractive - I think Phil is onto somthing when he says that cropping would make the picture even more beautiful, so I made a workshop. You can find your picture under categories/workshop - hope you don't mind. If you do, then just send me a message and I will remove the workshop.
Kind regards
Els

A beautiful Sunrise. Yes, I agree, some cropping to bring it closer.

Possibly a crop would work but I'm not 100% convinced because the smallness of the figure relative to the landscape is important and better seen in the larger image where the expanse of sand doesn't notice quite so much. Beautiful sky with perfect saturation.

Steve, this is the perfect title for this image. The soft pastel colors and the serene feeling of the image reminds me of how I feel every time I go to the beach. The figure represents how very small we are in the big universe.

Hi
I agree with past comments about cropping off the sand.
Great colours though.

Hello there
What magnificent colours and a very beautiful scene, have to agree with the suggestions regarding cropping and cloning and I think the workshop Els did is very nice.
Thank you for posting
Kind regards Helen
