WC#477 - Pastel Moonrise

Gallery: Weekly ChallengePosted April 5, 2011186 views12 comments

I thought finding a blue mood image would be easy, but I had to go all the way back to 2005 to find this. A great theme this week.

LARGER version available for greater detail.

Critiques, suggestions, and comments always welcomed and greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking and sharing.

Yes Bill great entry for the theme, It is almost all blue except for the little strip of beach, and the range of tones is amazing. Tranquility in blue.

Lovely image! The subtle shades of blue are amazing and there's such a nice balance between the small, bright moon and the strip of beach.

Thats some blue. Wonderful image. My only suggestions would be to lighten up the dark blue at the top of the image - seems just a tad dark - just my own personal taste. You definitly nailed the theme with this one.

Bill: Most of your beach shots have that wonderful warm light so this is a departure from your norm and a good one. Beautiful scene superbly captured.>=))>

Ahhh... this shot makes me long to put my bare feet down in cool, smooth sand... and to me, that means you nailed it. The mood is wonderful, and the color is perfect for a serene and peaceful scene. The moon is an exquisite detail. This is gorgeous, Bill.
