The Face of Nature


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest SECOND PLACE Winner   The Face of Nature
The Face of Nature
I was working on textures when I shot this picture, the combination of water and sand. When I pulled it up, Annie said that looks just like a face. She is right so the title was easy to come up with.
This is out of the camera and no photo shop work was done to modify the shape.

Entered in Nature and Landscapes

Frank, this is great! It totally looks like a face. Love the colors and such a variety of textures. Excellent light, too, with a hint of intriguing shadows. Beautifully done!

  Frank this is an excellent study of texture, I love how you captured the the texture in the water and sand going in different directions and also the light on the beach is wonderful!! The fact that it has the shape of a face adds fun and interest!! Excellent work Frank!!
