That's me in the water! Picture taken by my wife Susan on the same day evening I captured those sunset shots. She said it looks cool and I thought it was funny....let me have your thoughts on this.

  Nice shot, but I personally don't care for the yellow tint on the water. Just my personal opinion, since most seem to love it...but I do like the strong sillhouette image! Also, I'd have liked to see a little more of the water as fore and background with you a little more off to one side or the other. Sorry, I hope your not offened by my critique...but you know me too well to bs you! I'll be looking forward to hearing from you soon! Take care my brother!!

  Susan's grasp of composition appears to be a natural instinct. She was careful to get all the water ripples around you making it appear as though you were rising from the sea. The colors support her vision of what this marvelous shot could be. Welcome to BP, Susan!

  There goes your camera, Sanjay. LOL

Sanjay, this could have easily been one of your great abstracts. The gold and bronze reflections on the waves make an interesting contrast to the wake around the silhouetted body that appears to have risen from depths. Terrific shot Susan.
