Re: Walking on Water

I have looked at this for a while and finally decided that the majority of the right hand side and a little of the top can be lost and the levels need to be adjusted to make it pop.

This will make the lady stand out a lot more and concentrate the viewer on her which is the important part of the picture.

Nice capture, and did she fall? it must have been slippery.

Re: Walking on Water

I agree about the levels correction, but it could also use a white balance adjustment to get rid of the yellow cast - this will also help make the subject "pop" more.
