Very ordinary beach picture, BUT with the rotation I fear my desk is going to get wet. Wonderful simple effect, well done :)

nice colors and very sharp image.
slight tilt on the horizon.

I am a BIG fan of diagonals. It adds a dynamic effect to some pics. Unfortunately, I don't think it works in this case. IMO a diagonal for diagonals sake just doesn't work (I have tried, and tried, and tried...).

I find it works best to empasize a geometric pattern, or enhance a mood (eg. a downwards diagonal is more solemn, or an upwards diagonal gives a feeling of optimism---I am refering to the direction of the subject).

Anyway, it's never wrong to experiment so cheers for that!
