Brighton Bank Holiday Photo

Photographer’s Note

A bank holiday on Brighton beach, there were other people around but I have cropped it, to give a more lonely feel.

Hi Michael!
Really good beach scene with lovely bold colours and a great sky! You did well to crop it, and you have produced just the mood you wanted. Well composed.
You are amassing quite a squad at Pompey...good luck! Best wishes, Vicky

Hello Michael,

Belle composition avec le ponton qui délimite l'horizon, la plage et son sable ocre sur la gauche, l'écume le l'eau, les personnes au premier plan. Tout est bien pensé !

Amicalement,
Stéphanie.

Hi Michael. Very effective composition with the brown triangle, the diagonal created by the breaking waves and the long pier providing the horizontal interest. Lovely colours. Regards. Klaudio

Hi Michael. Wow, the thumbnail doesn't do much justice to this one, as it is quite a stunning photograph in its full size. You really milked the 200 KB upload constraint to its limits with this crisply sharp and richly detailed beachside photo. The lighting is very good, and I like the inverse L-shaped reading that is created by the diagonal surf coming in in the foreground, and the horizontal expanse of the pier in the back. The foreground people are beuatifully included and the fact that the rightmost person is leaning towards the water is a well-timed detail. Nice work.

A very good photo, I like the composition, specially the dock enclosing the sea in the picture.
Very good croping, you left just the right amount of people in the beach.
