Sand StrollThe photographer has elected to submit this image with a digital frame.  As you can see I put a simple gray frame around each image before posting.  If you decide to enter material pre-matted I will consider that as part of the image and critique your selection of mat as well as the image.  In this case the mat and frame selected for this submittal are excellent.

This image is a counter point to a similar theme entered in December.  The photograph of the surfer entitled ‘Sand’.   Where that work could be defined as the energy and power of youth this picture says tranquility and reflection. 

The subject nearly to the left hand edge of the frame is not looking at the camera but passively contemplating her stroll.  There is movement in her gauzily dress suggesting a slight on shore breeze.  With the early morning light the photo-artist has captured both the highlights and shadows contained within this illustration.

This photograph tells a story!

  1. This Photo was taken of Georgia Martin after her bridal shower at Paridice Cove last spring . She was walking along the shore there barfoot as I was drawn to the long shadows and cliffs far off as the winds teased and played with her long white dress… it seemed a romantic and timeless moment to me ,with her mood and look to match the romantic seaside setting . Something to me is so magical about the expecantacy of up comming wedding anticipation and reflections…I had hoped and wanted to capture her easy calm personality in how she is a beautiful ,thoughtful and deeply spiritul person .!
    Thank you for your remarks !

  2. We hope you will be sending more of your photo-art.

  3. Forgive me ((BLUSH ))) need to make a correction here.. it wasn’t her baby shower but her BRIDAL shower oops….!!!!

  4. A beautiful image! I am not saying that because I now who you are, or because of how talented you are, it is because it is me L.O.L. well maybe, O.K. a little.
    You have a great eye and great timing with that tiny camera of yours. It is not the camera that makes the image happen it is the talent behind it.
    Congratulations! on a five star.
