so lovely that picture

What a great find, as the top and the bottom is too dark to see the details in trunk, I would crop some of it.

What did the letters talk about? That's so interesting and such a nice shot here

Thanks everyone^_^ Friiskiwi, I'll play around with some different compositions then, and MnMCarta, it was just legal notes, they really weren't letters. it looks like whoever owned the trunk originally was some kind of legal attorney, but reading what was left of them was pretty interesting. I have to be extra careful handling them, I've destroyed 2 pages already on accident

Awesome shot, if you bring out the colours a bit you have a winner

Very nice. You might crop a bit from the left and the bottom so the subject isn't so centered

Author, did you Photoshop this image?

No I did not, I did a light edit, but the photo is pretty much as shot the surfer is one of my nephew's friends

To kyricom thanks for the compliment. As to the crop on these type of surf shots I prefer to keep the surfer at center and keep as much of the wave in the shot as possible The violence of the wave and the surf that day was to me the essence of the photo.

You have oblivious given some thought to this photo, but I suggest you reshoot. Try to get the whole of the scales in the image. I'm not sure the mirror makes the best background, at least not when it's only reflecting a small part of the scales. Good Luck

Ok, thanks friiskiwi ... I know what you mean .. I'll try to keep the mirror (I like it) but to improve the quality of the reflection. I hope to do in time .. during the holidays, the days are very busy!
But it will not be unfair to those who have already voted?

I mean, is allowed to change a picture and not just cut or adjust lighting and contrast? If this is possible I try ..

You are allowed to make changes to the photo or to take an other photo and replace this one. I know what you mean about the voting, but it's O.K. After all this site is very much about learning.
Good Luck

This looks so much like a picture I took recently! There isn't much color to it, but I can make it that way and post it. I just don't want to take anything from your photo. I'll be posting on Facebook too, so you can check it out there if you like. I'm just figuring out how to post things to this besides contests. Great picture!!!

Thanks Gabs777! I absolutely love this pic myself. I love all of the colors in the sky is what sold me. The only thing I did to this image is crop it...one of my favs. How do I see your stuff on facebook??
Thanks again!

great looking fire
