The actual subject of the shot - the tide lines - are a really interesting and unique choice for a photo. The contrast of light and colour you move further back into the shot is very attractive and grabs the viewers attention very well. However, the tone of the background sky is a little confusing - was it manipulated in Photoshop at all? There are speckles and the sky looks unusally purple

Otherwise, another lovely picture

Thanks for your comment.
It was scanned from a print, and quite frankly my scanner is a piece of crap. The noise in the sky is really just a result of the scan, I didn't notice it in the original print at all. The only thing I did in photoshop was adjusted the levels, which brought out a bit of extra brightness and definition.

Thank you, and for the fav too
I have lots of Aussie beach shots too, but Thailand was more exotic, y'know?!

Not exactly. What exactly do you mean?

I just meant that you always think that what's in your own backyard is less interesting than something 1000s of miles away. At least I know a lot of Aussies think this way - we feel so isolated from the rest of the world, travel is very important to us.

There are beaches just like this in the North of Australia, I've just never been there. The beaches near where I live are gorgeous, I know... but I guess I take them for granted.

Make more sense?
