Twilight Beach
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DO NOT FULL VIEW!! XD why? Simply because it looks better in the small version. This was done completely in Photoshop. Anyway I've been kinda low in spirits lately and needed to do something to relieve some of the stress. So I did this. It certainly isn't one of my best. I wish the water looked better cause that's most of the reason I did this, but I like it anyway.

Sharpness- The biggest problem with this picture is that it's not sharp enough in some areas, and too crisp in others. For example- brush grass is ok for the close strands of grass, but hte further you go away, the blurrier it becomes. Your farther ones are too sharp. the clouds and water edge is too dense- they're both objects of scattered water- the dges faid off in areas. the stars are too fuzzy- it's better that they are smaller and sharper cause it's pure light- not a diffused light.
Moon light- Moon light is bright, but it's not very intence. Glossy objects like water have a sharp gloss, but something like beach would darken a bit.
Flow lines- Scenery is all about flow lines and how they direct your eyes. I'm attaching a crit that shows you your flow lines. They're really important for drawing the veiwer's eyes- attached below your pic, one I found on the internet which is similar. Notice how even though the horizontal line in the center of you pic is good (it's great form of balance), the curves beneath it focus your eyes to the left of the page, and the triangles at the top take your attention away from the moon. If you look at the second pic, the flow lines are purely perspective, where no matter where you look, you always focus to the center of the pic. They were SUPER tricky focusing the sky onto the BRIDGE, which I believe is the subject of this pic (or at least most of the subject) Also note how the moon light give a diffused glow over everything, but not the forground. Even the bridge doesn't light that. Another form of focus.darken all that doesn't matter.
Lastly- having the city in the background silhoetted was a great way of cutting the water from the sky- you could have colours or landscape to do that. I frames the picture into towo halves nicely then
This all help?
