Bloodstar on kelp

Bloodstar on kelp shot on an overcast day at tidal pool in Salt

Creek near Port Angeles, WA.

Top exposure and good colour contrast (though light/ dark contrast is challenged.) Feels digital though! (I have seen the tech specs.......but it has that shiny, CCD feel about it that the digital photographer might remedy with grain noise.) I might be tempted to sacrifice some of the composition in order to have the Bloodstar take more of the frame; the critter resembles a fellow with a long neck. Is the white patch on 'his' left arm a blow-out or something floating by? Regradless of negatives, well seen, and well isolated.

Beautiful 7/6

My only touch up would be the white hot spot.

Inge,

Really fantastic shot. Very well done!!!

The colors and composition are great and the shininess/texture of the seaweed is absolutely sensuous

Some of the most exciting and inspirational landscapes I have seen in a long while. Please give us more!

This reminds me of a shot made by John Shaw.

Excellent light, color and textures. Best regards
