I know this has probably too much vibrancy...but I just couldnt resist all the violet tones in the sea.......

What happened in the end? Did he get it?

phoenixvision · 11-09-2014, 02:11 PM

unfortunately he drowned trying......But he never gave up trying till the end!

I like the idea but the entire composition does not appeal to me, the dog appears mostly in shadows, the sun too far in the corner.
P.S. Listen I dont pretend to know photography, just giving my honest opinion here.

That's the funny part of trying something we can't achieve.

Very nice color and a happy dog to fill the foreground as well...;-)

Ventura...I tried to get the sun to move more to the middle, but it was a stubborn sun that day.........you can go two ways with sunset...one of course is to use flash or a light source to light the subject in the foreground and thus balance the light and still maintain the color and light of the sun...the other is go for a more natural look....I somehow went for neither with this shot and chose to go for a more dreamlike shot....thanks for taking the time to comment....its all a treasure hunt, you never know where the jewels are....

I think the dog and the sun balance themselves. the dog brings you from the lower left corner through the picture to the right upper corner. Nicely done, great picture

I don't think it's too vibrant.
