Distanced from Himself

I thought the texture in the water looked cool:

Picture reminds me of those exotic captures from India, ya know kids on the beach bathed in black.

Thanks so much guys...How's the White balance..does it seem too gray at all?

It is a very nice idea (minimalist type thing) but I don't like the composition.

I would have cut the bottom to about where the reflection of the closest person is and added as much at the top. I would also have cropped some on the left and added that much to the right.

And yes, it is a bit gray. A little more contrast would help.

well, it being a B&W the white balance is irrelevant, thought i would personally crop a little bit on the lower side of the frame, everything else is spot on, more contrast would only mean blown highlights

I like this photo as it is, it's very nice!

Thanks so much guys...as for the cropping dealio, I tried it, and the photo turns out to be a simple moment caught of two silouettes in the water. The way I Have it now, however, seems more artistic. Thanks for the suggestions, though

This is the best photo I've seen you post in TPF so far. Very interesting image and great work.
