It is a calm and serene scene that invites long contemplative looks. Much like one would experience if one was actually there. Very well done in conveying that sense of peace.
Hey Andre,
Great to see you here again!
I think this works pretty well. I like the blue/orange color story here and the way the coast leads you through the frame up into the sun there.
Thanks for the comments Matt.
Really enjoyed your last podcast and article on AI.
I actually just finished an AI-generated video for one of my songs.
It took me a while to get the hang of the software and I had a few other projects I was trying to wrap up so I haven’t been able to post that much.
I’m looking forward to exploring the world some more through the lens of my camera.
I’ll add a brief write-up on my AI adventures on your post.
The light and that gold is wonderful here. I particularly like the boundaries between light and dark on the horizon and the surf line. A sharper boundary between dark sand and gold water would have been desirable. The sun is not a powerful subject in this image but it definitely makes it’s presence felt.
Thanks for the comments @Lon_Overacker@Igor_Doncov .
Igor, yes a cleaner line along the sand and the water would have been nice but the wet sand tends to have a natural gradient as it recedes back to the pool.
Lon, the jetty is manmade.
Andre, this is sublime. A perfectly composed image and one timed well with the waves and the sun almost on the horizon. I love the curves of the water meeting the sand. Like the others said, I wouldn’t change a thing. Excellent.
I echo what has already been said. And add that I like the way the sun is both low on the horizon and above the right end of the jetty, helping with the visual flow of image.
