Welcome to TL Cy. This is a nice first post. i especialy liek teh colour you have achived. The greenish tone is lovely and contrast is great.

Nice texture, and contrast of hard and soft (sand and water). Have you tried using blue instead of yellow for the duotone? Welcome to Treklens!

Very well done !
I like the idea a lot ...
A very creative and unusual self-portrait !
Welcome to TL !

Very nice shadow, would be nice to see what made this most interesting outline.

Also the water to the right realy makes the shot, very nice composition. Welcome to TL Cy, look forward to seeing more of you in the future.

Hello Cy and welcome to TL! I read an article just this weekend about shooting one's shadow. This is a great example. I wonder why you chose green for your color? This is a very nice image and thanks for sharing.

Very original Self portrait Cy, love the color you used here and the diagonal composition of the beach ..great shot !!

Photo attirante et originale
Bonne disposition des divers éléments qui sont accentués et embellis par le choix de cette "étrange et efficace" couleur.
J'aime bien!!!!

Interesting shot. Well conceived and implemented.
