Just 3 pics with little in common from today that I quite liked and wanted people to see rather than just sitting on the HDD.

Swimming in the surf deep, went for an incorrect WB to get the desired blue:

Swimming in the surf shallow, would've been cool to grab a nice looking surfer girl to model somewhere, but felt a little introverted today:

Heath - I just love #1 - a style that takes the ordinary and creates an interesting camera view :)

Heath,

What Chris said.

Great use of the light, and good PP as well - this would have been very easy to over sharpen, and you've taken care to not fall into that trap.

Agree as well on the first photo, although, have you tried a vertical crop of just the little girl and the jewellery stand?

That's what I would have said too.
Lovely backlight, but I find the elements on the LHS a little distracting.
