This has been a difficult week. One of the changes I wanted
to make was to darken the upper left hand corner a bit. The idea was to show
some sand as the waves drew away from the beach. I did put that in but it was
unhappy with it. It turned out too dark in my estimation, so I had to remove
it. The darker area became more of a focus point for the eye. It competed with the
Sandpipers. Removing it took some doing but I got it back to nearly the same
tone as in Week 8. Just a bit darker. That seemed better. Another change I made
was to subdue the seaweed a bit so it wasn’t as colorful. The brighter colors
also competed with the birds, so dulling it down somewhat by adding more green
helped. The birds now stand out more. I have done a little more on the foam but
still have just a bit more to do.
