Fihalhohi Jetty Photo

Photographer’s Note

Taken during a particularly relaxing week in the Maldives following a hectic and tiring week touring Sri Lanka, this photo was taken in the very early days of my interest in photography. More of a snapshot than anything, but a pleasant enough photo to start with in my opinion.

Hi Elliott,
Welcome to TE.
Very nice place you have selected and the POV is good too.
But the date there is really odd. You must take it off.
There few easy techniques to fix it, one is cropping it or doing cloning in photoshop.
I can't make a workshop now since I don't have Photoshop here, but any way I recommend you to try in the next time.

Keep posting
Pedro

Welcome to TrekEarth, Elliott! What a stunning debut photo! The color of the water is especially striking. I like your point of view - looking back on the beach and including the pier adds some elements of interest to the scene. The highlights in the beach are a little "blown", but it's a difficult scene for most any camera to meter. I agree with Pedro that the date stamp is somewhat distracting and I did a quick workshop on it. Hope you don't mind. Good stuff - keep posting!
