I agree with chefcop, it´s a great perspective!The only thing I dislike is those construtions in the right..if they weren´t there the photo could be just perfect! Why won´t you "erase" that in photoshop?
But it´s a nice picture anyway!

Stephen, I did a workshop on this picture just to try and give it a little different perspective. You had a great idea on this one.

Ahh, what a nice low perspective. Poor starfish. But I must say that she is on the good position for your composition.
Nice place, sand and...nothing for a long walk.
I like this photo.

It's a really great shot. The low angle is very interesting despite all those buildings on the right, still it's impossible not to like it, even with a slight tilt in the horizon ;-)
Excelent work Stephen!!!! Wonderful pale colours too!

Very nice one. Original and well done.
Perhaps it would be best by turning 90° to the left, and get the see in the background? (because it seems there was a lot of sand before water ? no?)

But a great one. Bravo !

Very well! If this poor little starfish came from the montain.... I'm not surprised he dying! Well i love this powerfull view... I like the way there is the mointain so away ant the structure to give an idea of the context... Without it change to give the impression it's infinite... Depending what you want to show! Texture in the sand is very well!

I love the point of view, and the patterns in the sand and sky, amd the pale colours looking like sand is blown. Poor starfish!

Great shot Stephen love your point of view. The muted colours of the sand leading to the blue sky are really effective. Well done.

Your POV turned this shot into a WOW shot, absolutely fantastic, well done Stephen.

Intriguing shot! I like both workshops and the general movement from memesis to abstraction. A dead (sea) star in the infinite (sky) botton is a very polisemantic symbol.

Hi....I like too much the original version...
The constructions on the right give a perspective to the picture...a way to see the proportions....
An other way to see the things,like if the civilization took more and more place....
I hope my english give well what i want explain

I found fantastic the atmosphere of this one...keep it ... original
