Walking on the beach

Posted by LauraS (Chico, United States) on 24 February 2009 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

Walking on the beach...made this a black and white to keep it simple.

Visual learner that I am, I enjoy taking photographs, seeing others photos, and sharing them all. How we view the world may influence others to see more clearly that the world we live in is truly a beautiful and spectacular place. Now, I am using a Panasonic DMC-ZS1. Many of my photos over the last two years have been taken with my Sony DSC-T300. Unfortunately I've broken it. Occasionally, I am using my iPhone, and you will see that listed to the right of the photos.

Truly, I am an amateur who loves to look at the world, marvel at its beauty, and capture a slice for myself to remember and to share.

I looked it up on BABELFISH for you Laur. In the meantime, I like it a lot. I like the posture of the dog ... and the person's mid-stride. The partial reflections are so nice. Looks like a great day!

In mono it works superbly, little contrast but it works better without it.

I agree with Peter this works well despite/because of low contrast. The little silver line of light on the horizon gives nice depth to what otherwise might seem a bit flat.

indeed, sometimes colour is just too distracting - this shot is soothing and calm - i love walks like that with my dog - photos are especially wonderful when they go beyond the aesthetics of the individual shot and evoke memories and emotions in the viewer - thank you!
