Life looks so tough!! I like the shot of the seals I think it portrays their natural tendency to laze around in the sun. However I wonder if a tighter crop at the top (cutting out some of the trees) would emphasise the diagonal line of the rock and the seals putting the focus more on them. I noticed the crop I mentioned as I scrolled the page up on my computer and the top part was blocked out just leaving a small slither of trees.

Hello again!

Nice bunch of beach combers! They had to wait high tide to climb up there ?
Sabrina, here I think we are just missing an important element. We just have here a small corner of the sea. A portrait or vertical shot, for instance on the left side, shooting a bit further down, including the sea , with a thinner tree portion would have I think made it a bit more complete.

You opted to take as many seals as possible obviously, but I believe a tighter crop would have been better in this case.

Kepp on shooting.

Hallo Sabrina,

A beautiful capture of the nature, just like NatGeo. Good details are taken in good light controls. Point of view is exciting. Wonderful shot Sabrina.

Thanks for sharing beauties of the nature.
