Not as compelling as the last image of him sitting. Without the preceding shot this one would have been tough to figure out. I asked for this kind of image didn't I?
Sorry J.R. the image doesn't do anything for me. I think I kinda have a gist of what you were going for, but the execution was a little weak. I don't like it how the stump blocks the guy, and it is hard to tell it is a sunrise without more detail in the sky.
On it's own, it didn't speak to me. However, now having just read the story behind it (the guy waited up all night waiting for a girl he met to call him on his cell. She didn't call), I have a good feel for it. He's feeling quite bummed/melancholy, and wondering what went wrong. He's gazing out at the water and trying to cope with his apparent rejection.
This is an example of context making the shot for me.
Thanks all. I know this one isn't the best. I was hoping for something else from this one when I shot it, but that is how it goes. Thanks all for the comments.
