Title: Beach Stones, Flathead Lake
Post by: DanVH on January 24, 2009, 10:00:57 pm

I have always liked the combination of rock texture and water. When I saw this spot I was also taken with the color of the rocks.

I like it! The bubbles really give the image depth.

Nice photo.  Something I like about the side lighting yet good shadow detail.  Rocks are one of my favorite subjects.  They're not too skittish, either.

I like this image. The glistening of the stones is a nice touch and not overwhelming as it sometimes can be. And the visual placement of the brown-red stones is so well balanced against the others.

Nice.  The contra light adds another dimension that I quite like.  This would look great printed really big, so everyone could see all the intricate detail in the texture of the rocks.

Thanks
I have printed it at 16X20 and have to admit it looks pretty good!
