I really thought I had done this photo yesterday! I like the way the blue sea, devides the sky and the beach, lovely photo Sunith & Lea #394023Darleen A. Stry February 18, 2006
Very enjoyable shot.The only thing you MAY try is to tone down the old mans shirt just a little on his left shoulder and top of left knee.
Other than it's great with the sepia and blue combination.
Breaking the image into 3 triangles is a great effect. #2435427

A polarizer would help here, Sumi, and another suggestion is to be sure that your horizon is always level ... unless you really are after another effect and then the angle should be more dramatic. Interesting division of colors!!Shawn M. Marymee December 16, 2006

He was also like him who loves photography and this beautiful place Hawaii. We also like to commend your gallery for having such DYNAMIC and very well COMPOSED as well EXPRESSIVE photos. We really like your animal photos and we know it is not easy to do it considering of how to get the proper timing of its expression.
