Since my photos don't compare with many on this board, I don't usually post here... But I liked this picture and wanted to hear what thoughts others might have. Thanks.

I like this shot. Especially how the legs have sunk into the sand.

But one wonders, what's the view like from the seat?

Thanks StopBath...

Here's a view from that same seat (which was posted on the share board):

Cool. Thanks for the 'from the seat picture'

Looking at the the two, a polarizer would have been good on the 'dogs' shot. Too much reflection on the water and it muted the great colour in the water (as seen in the seat shot.)

Thanks...I had a polarizer on the first lens, but I don't currently have one that fits the second.

There is an interesting scene here, that could have resulted is some great shots.
#1 is too far off the chair, lower you view point a little and get closer
#2 is probably more funny for you than for me. Like the one with chair better.

Thanks for the input Henk, I appreciate it. Are you also saying that more sky should have been included? or perhaps just a different perspective with less of a wide angle view?

Not more sky , just a different perspective, wide angle is most likely needed since you need to focus on the close by chair and the mountains in the distance.
