 I don't remember the exact order... Cropped. Cloned out a shadow of a sign that was rather distracting. Adjusted saturation and brightness. Applied a border.

I know the horizon line is crooked. Played with cropping out the sky to eliminate this problem. Didn't look good. Preferred the subject be straight compared to the horizon.

I like the colors here but the water looks a tad digital at the top.

Beautiful shot that really creates a feeling of wanting to be somewhere tropical. My eye is wishing for a touch more sharpness, but the idea and feeling conveyed are great.

Cool long shadows!

Very interesting composition. The palm trees are a really nice touch. The long shadows makes the eyes follow the shadow toward the top of the shot. The blue of the ocean seems to distract. It would work if you cropped it out.

I really like the way the shadows seem to converge on the water. The colors are beautiful.

Great shot. Love the blue water in the far BG & the palms with your own shadow. 9!

Ahhh. I miss those days. No snow where I am, but no ocean either.

Hum, love long shadows. That with the lovely beach, very inviting shot. Nice job.

I really love your use of negative space. The bulk of the interest lies within the length of the shadow, but I like the way you used the narrow ocean space to add a sort of inbalance to the balance. Love the footprints in the sand's forground. Overall, very creative! 10
