Hi all,

this shot I took it back with my old camera Canon 20D.

I remember clearly that I agreed with a friend to shoot at that day and when we reach to the location I try to take photos but I couldn't coz I forgot my memory card !

it was a silly mistake but fortunately my friend has a spare card and with it I took this picture

I hope you like it and your C&C is required

Canon 20D
sigma 10-20
GND LEE Filter 0.9
Yanbu - KSA

thanks,

I really like the repetition of shapes between the land and the sky. THe magenta twang is nice too. Overalll a well balanced and pleasing comp.

Those ripples in the foreground / mid-ground are really nice. Well done!

I love the comp, esp. the shapes and patterns in the FG. Not too sure I like the color balance and the heavy purple/magenta, but an easy fix if you wanted.

The color cast is too strong - some may like it for that, but it's just too unnatural for me. The comp sings

I especially love the foreground and midground. I'm not quiet sure about the color balance. For my taste the color cast is much too strong.

Love the patterns on the beach. Some awesome colors as well. I also find the blue/magenta cast a bit too strong.

Abdulmajeed,

The composition is very nice, with excellent detail. The purple/magenta is too strong, in my opinion, and doesn't balance well with the yellow/orange on the horizon. This one is definitely worth doing some fine tuning.

This is beautifully composed Abdulmajeed. The textures and details in the FG sand is very striking as is the sky. My only suggestion would be to tone down the magenta/purple a bit.

The lavender color is strong but other than that it looks like a nice composition.

Really like the comp. Excellent foreground. Color feels a bit forced.

I love the light, sky, clouds, detailed foreground and it's patterns. Really a nice shot, and comp. Purple is too heavy for me though. Maybe just a slight purple/magenta hue???

I too think it is a cool shot echoing what others have said.

The colors are very nice, but that foreground is what makes this shot for me. A beautiful scene!

Great composition and moment. I love the textures of the foreground. To me, the violet cast is a little bit too strong. Well done!

Abdulmajeed, I love the sense of depth that the is created by the glistening pockets of sand and ripples that grow smaller as they recede into the distance. The sky is great as well. The Light and composition are superb!

Lovely composition, light and textures as mentioned. The magenta/purple is unusual and probably not overly natural but I quite like it!

Nice comp, the ripples in the sand are very compelling. The image does look a tad on the purple side.
