This very simple photo from Asbury Park, New Jersey is one of my favorites. In cropping, I kept the curving line of footprints in the left corner. I brought out detail in the sky to create layers by using editing software. I also converted the image to black and white to create atmosphere. What are your thoughts about this photo?

I like the photo. I would also be interested in seeing the original (color).

I agree. Nice photo but it would be interesting to compare and contract the 2.

It's interesting and I like the dramatic effect. I think it would be even more profound without one of the people in the photo, but obviously it is what it is and you don't want to take too much away from the original. I, too, would like to see the color version just for comparison purposes.

I like it. I think it might be better to have more of the beach itself but that's just my own preference. It's a terrific photo.
