Challenge: The End or The Beginning (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-50D
Lens: Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM
Location: Haleiwa Harbor, Oahu
Date: Oct 5, 2013
Date Uploaded: Oct 9, 2013

It's just priceless to have other sets of eyes to give honest opinions prior to submitting to challenges. This challenge, like the "Beginning of the End" challenge, I had my mind set on what I was going to enter but the Shutter Down team gently nudged me in the right direction. It just makes me wonder how many other entries would've had a better result if I'd have gone with a different crop or another entry alltogether.

Here is the crop that I was going to enter before the feedback:

Looking at it now, I know this wouldn't have done as well.

GO SHUTTER DOWN!

This was taken during the Scott Kelby World Wide Photowalk which took place in old Haleiwa town on the north shore of Oahu. I have many good memories of catching waves on this side of the island every year during the winter surf season. I don't really come up here much anymore, but should.

Here's another pic from the Photowalk

Congrats on 4th place with this extremely beautiful image, Mark. Sometimes I wish there was a ribbon for 4th place.

Great shot, Mark. I knew this would be a great one. Love the clouds/light and the figure at the end of the rocks.
