This is held every year by my church down at the local beach. It's very fun to go to (and shorter than the service later in the day :wink ). I got this one shot that i really liked. *PLEASE* tell me what you think of it.I'm feeling mixed about it. it was at about 6:30 am

Thanks!

I personally love how the cross looks against the sky. It's beautiful, but when you look to the bottom it's rather dark and I had to really look to make out the chairs....maybe a few minutes more, the light would of been lighter?

thanks for the response...Do you think it might be better to just crop the chairs out completely and leave the skyline in the background? I have one from a little later, but the oranges and blues arent as rich.

I have found that some people like the silhouette concept and some do not. I personally do because it makes you wonder what is really there. Some people want to actually see what is there rather than guess.

That is at least my opinion.

As for the image

Though I might crop some of the darkness at the bottom off I think the silhouette of the chairs is perfect.

It's at least 2 stops underexposed.
