I'm not sure what to think of this shot. At first I thought the focus was too loose. However, after looking at it a while longer (and decoloring it), I came to quite like it. Any suggestions for improvement? Thanks!
I think I would like the picture more if the man had been clear, and the other things had been blury, if you understand what I mean. now it's just a blury man on the beach, and I seem to have no feelings for it. but if he had been clear and the others had been blury, it would have been as if he was the center, and all other things is blury and unclear, and that would have fitted more to the title.
I think you're right. It removes some of the negative space on the left and uses the person in the image as a border instead of as a direct point of focus. Much better lines. Thanks for the suggestion! :)
