Default Drawing a Line in the Sand

Was shooting some bridals one late afternoon at Isle of Palms, SC and after wrapping it up with the bride, I saw this as we headed back to the cars. Hope you enjoy.

That is gorgeous!

The shadows and highlights with the golden color. That's one for the wall. You might want to market this one. I really enjoy it.

Talk about leading lines in a photograph! This works perfectly! I'd love to have a shot like this. It could just be me but it looks like the horizon is tilting slightly down to the right.

I see that too, but I think if it was shifted to change the horizon, the light reflecting vertically in the sand would be crooked.

So you have the horizon line where water/land meet sky and there is the vertical reflection line. Correcting one could affect the other in a negative way.

Like you said though, it's a great shot regardless.
